More on 'Live Earth' coming thorugh...
U2, Coldplay and Scissor Sisters are among the top acts being tipped to appear at a concert to raise awareness about global warming later this year.
A series of concerts are being planned for July 7 in London, Washington DC, Shanghai, Rio de Janeiro, Cape Town and Kyoto where organisers hope to amass a worldwide television audience of two billion people in order to present the message about global warming.
The event is being branded SOS and the London venues being earmarked include the new Wembley Stadium and Hype Park. An SOS promoter told the Financial Times “The talent involved is just exponentially bigger because the issue itself is bigger. Live Aid was about asking people to stump up money, this about effecting systemic change. The aim is not just to drive awareness but to get people to take action."
