Pharrell Williams and Al Gore announce Live Earth 2015
Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Williams says the event will see ‘humanity harmonise all at once’
The unlikely combination of Pharrell Williams and Al Gore have announced what they hope to be the largest global campaign in history, in the form of a second round of Live Earth concerts to promote awareness of climate change. The concerts will take place across all seven continents – including Antarctica – on 18 June.
Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, the pair were joined by producer Kevin Wall to unveil an event aiming for a global television audience of 2 billion across 193 television networks.
A promotional clip shown before Williams spoke offered a caption promising 100 artists in the seven shows. Each event will last from four to six hours.
I wonder which of our faves will be participating? Sounds kinda huge.
