Journey "rocks the Earth" on "Eclipse" tour

(CBS) From South Detroit, across the country and overseas, Journey has been captivating audiences with its feel good, American anthemic hits, so now what's left? It's time to really "Rock the Earth."

The band (which includes Filipino singer-songwriter Arnel Pineda who has served as the lead singer since 2007, following Steve Perry's departure from the band) is going green on its North American "Eclipse" tour by teaming up with the national environment advocacy group Rock the Earth in an effort to get its fans to recycle their old cell phones.

Concert goers can bring their old, unwanted mobile phones and chargers, adapters, etc. to the Rock the Earth booth at Journey's upcoming August and September U.S. tour stops. The band will be playing at Nikon at Jones Beach Theater in Wantagh, N.Y., on Wednesday.

If you can't make the show, you can go to a Rock the Earth Phone Recycling Center to get an online entry form. And if saving the earth from toxic chemicals isn't enough, the organization is offering additional incentives when you donate your phone.

Rock the Earth points out that there are over 1 billion out-of-use cell phones in the U.S. alone, which is more than three out-of-use phones per person. Less than 10 percent of cell phones are recycled properly and end up entering landfills and other compromising locations.
