Al Gore announced yesterday that he will be organizing a massive international concert to further  promote global warming.  The 24-hour event is scheduled for July 7th and will feature co-ordinated film, music
and television events in seven cities including London, Washington DC,
Shanghai, Rio de Janeiro, Cape Town and Kyoto. 

Each venue will be designed and constructed by a special team of sustainability engineers and advisors who will "address the environmental and energy management concerns of each concert site, as well as the operations of sponsors, partners, and other Live Earth affiliates."

Al Gore said in a statement:

In order to solve the climate crisis, we have to reach billions of
people…The climate crisis will only be
stopped by an unprecedented and sustained global movement.

So far, they have a pretty unbelievable lineup, including the Red Hot
Chili Peppers, Bon Jovi, Snoop Dogg, Melissa Etheridge, the Foo
Fighters, Lenny Kravitz, Sheryl Crow, John Mayer, Duran Duran, Korn,
Pharrell, the Black Eyed Peas, Akon, Enrique Iglesias, Faith Hill and
Tim McGraw.
