 8th Wonder of The World today announced the addition of MannaRelief and Wellness 4 Environment to the world’s first LIVE 3-D concert scheduled for May 12th, 2007 from 9:00PM-12:30AM EST. The concert, to be put on by www.ManiaTV.com and www.Tantraww.com not only aims to make history, it aims to raise awareness for global warming.

8th Wonder of the World has invited MannaRelief, a children’s charity providing essential nutritional supplements to sick and impoverished children around the world as a way to highlight a simple solution to some of the world’s most dangerous problems, starvation and undernourishment.  www.mannarelief.org

8th Wonder of the World has asked Wellness 4 Environment to provide Ethos FR, a  bio-degradable fuel additive to the entire DV8 production team’s vehicles and to the live concert attendees vehicles at Mania!TV studios on the night of the show, to help combat global warming.  Ethos FR substantially reduces dangerous gashouse emissions and dramatically improves gas mileage.  www.wellness4environment.com
