Reports are swirling that Al Gore, who is nominated for an Oscar for his
An Inconvenient Truth documentary (see trailer
here), is set to announce a series of concerts aimed at drawing more attention to the growing climate crisis. The event is reportedly set for this coming July 7th and may include concerts in as many as seven cities including London, Washington DC, Shanghai, Rio de Janeiro, Cape Town and Kyoto.
Gore was expected to make an announcement today in London. However, Gore and Sir Richard Branson did make an announcement about a $25 million dollar
prize to foster new methods of combating climate change. There are no reports about a concert at this point in time.
