My companies are preparing to contact certain cities and governments to ask for their collective support of our efforts to slow global warming. If you believe the same, contact us via livevideoinc@gmail.com. This is a sample draft we have started:
Key words: Kurt Kelly (Humanitarian), Live Video Inc (company), Jon Sargent, Disaster Relief Inc (non-profit charity), Meratus Rain Forest should not die (movie), The Final Cut (Film),
OPEN LETTER Re: Upcoming Event
Lisa Marroquin Press Assistant Office of Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti
We are in the midst of the 6th global extinction in the history of the planet, and since the 5th extinction 10 million lifeforms evolved; over 8 million of which have already been lost due to the recklessness of humankind. In fact the rates of extinction are becoming so rapid that thousands of additional life forms will be continually lost annual, until we stop our path of carnage and destruction. Sadly, global leaders are idly sitting by are big business extorts the planet in the names of greed and created consumer demands of products such a wood from the Rain Forests.
Presently, my company Live Video, Inc. [LVI] and DRI are working with Celebrities, Experts, Environmentalists, Biologists, World Leaders and others concerns dedicated to find solutions for these very real problems of global warming and extinction. It's time to draw the lines beyond politics, religion, selfish interests, and hidden agendas; to reach for the greater good and concerns of all lifeforms [not just human needs and desires].
Over the past 30+ years since ABC first brought me here to Hollywood, I have worked with the City of Los Angeles [as recipient of multiple letters of Acknowledgement and Awards over the years for personal contributions], and others to aid with causes and benefits for Homelessness, Food Banks, Vets, D.A.R.E., Aids, Cancer, UNICEF, The UN, Rain Forests, Natural Disasters, Women's Shelters, Family Shelters, Abuse and Suicide Victims, Mental Health, Children's Cancer, Leukemia, ALS, Altimeters, MS, MD, Easter Seals, USA for Africa, Farm Aid, Walden Forest, Energy and Water Conservation, Pollution, Great Peace, Save The Whales, PETA, and countless others, see the attached UN-UNICEF-JON SARGENT LETTER01022016. Clearly, I am passionate about Humanitarian and Equality efforts for all forms of life, and am willing to be in the solution.
It would be my request that LVI-DRI will create events that would receive both the support of The Mayor and The City of Los Angeles to raise much needed funds for the completion of several films we have in production to benefit the reforestation of global Rain Forest to both preserve existing life forms we have yet to discover [alarmingly less then 1% known in the Rain Forest, and being destroyed by human kind faster than we can save it], and to slow global warming. While we non reverse damage caused, we can at least begin to do our part to stop rapid extinction, slow global warming, promote sustainable living, recycling, and coexistence to support the ever growing global demands. It is clearly an Epic time in the history of Leadership to take a stand to against profit over the path of destruction, and require companies to restore the rain forests immediate; and to start tree farms to replace every tree taken from all forests globally to increase air quality and sustainable living for future generations that might follow.

To Whom It May Concern,
It is a great pleasure to say a few a few kind words about my friend Kurt Kelly, a man whose boundless energey and enthusiam has been seasoned by a decade of "front office" dealings.
Quite by accident, our association began in 1984 as I was preparing a series for Anheuser-Busch on the burdeoning success of soundtracks. I was driving to a meeting when Kurt came of my car radio. Immediately I knew he had a voice that would "play in Peoria," and what the hell, he was already making it in L.A.! By days end we had a deal.
Fortunately, my gut instinct was not only proven out by the series' success, but Kurt's involvement directly resulted in 3 top ten station clearances, much to the surprise, (and relief, I'll now admit) of my New York/London partners, who "strongly urged" me to reconsider my decision by hiring a "recognizable" name host they had waiting in the wings.
(I not only pride myself in my ability to pick a "winner", nu I also have the good sense to stick with one!)
And the rest, as they say, is radio syndication history... Literally. Our 10 year working relationship proudly boasts a long list of national & international "exclusives" featuring the cream of the Rock crop, including The Doors, Heart, Journey, etc.
In 1988 our "Crosby, Stills & Nash 4 Hour UNICEF Radiothon" resulted in the war in El Salvador stoping four days to immunize over 100,000 women and children with the money we raised.
But then, I'm sure Kurt will fill you in on the details much better then I can. You'd be wise to give him the opportunity.
Sincerely,
Jon Sargent
