Gore, Pharrell Williams to hold concerts for climate change

Former Vice President Al Gore and musician Pharrell Williams are planning concert events in multiple countries called Live Earth — Road to Paris.

The June 18 event will be a large campaign spanning concerts on seven continents, producer Kevin Wall said on Wednesday, according to Bloomberg.

Gore and others involved are hopeful the concerts will bring together “1 billion voices” from around the world to demand action on global warming.

“We literally are going to have humanity harmonize all at once,” Williams said.

The event locations include China, Sydney, Cape Town, Rio de Janeiro, New York City and Paris, Bloomberg reports. 

Gore added that a band of scientists will play at a research station in Antarctica as well.
