Other partners include Act Now, The Years Project, The Bowery Presents, Big Up and The Big Climate Lab.
“When I imagine a stadium full of people coming together for a climate event centered on music, what I imagine is an enormous opportunity to feel a solidarity that has been so missing here,” The Weather Station’s Tamara Lindeman. “I truly hope that an enormous in-person event can have some power to bring people together and create some common experience around climate, and push those in attendance to examine their climate feelings and push through them enough to act.
