Artists including The Lumineers are taking part in a new climate change campaign coinciding with the start of the 2022 United Nations Climate Change Conference, or COP27, which began this week in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt.


The initiative, which is being spearheaded by the Right Here, Right Now Global Climate Alliance, hopes to “rally support for United Nations Human Rights climate justice goals” and for “the world leaders and dignitaries assembled in Sharm El Sheikh to view climate change through a human rights lens.”


Others participating include Leonardo DiCaprio, Dead & Company, Bob Weir, Quincy Jones, Cher, Annie Lennox, Ellen DeGeneres, Edward Norton, Jack Black, LL Cool J and Joss Stone.


“By working together and supporting inclusive rights-based climate action for people and the planet, we can realize a better, more sustainable future for all,” DiCaprio says.
