Stars line-up for climate change concert

The Darkness, The Strokes and Super Furry Animals will top the bill at a concert to raise awareness of climate change, it was announced today.

The One Earth concert takes place at the Cardiff Millennium Stadium on January 28.

It will be broadcast live on the internet and aims to encourage one million Europeans to switch to renewable energy sources in 2006.

“People are genuinely concerned about the effects of climate change, but don’t know how easy it is to make a big difference.

“The concert will focus attention on the part we can all play in tackling climate change,” said organiser Michael Mathres of environmental group Climate Change Now.

Further details of the line-up will be announced shortly.
