Pharrell Williams and Al Gore?s promised a second round of Live Earth concerts on seven continents that would be broadcast to an audience of billions. It has now been downgraded to a webcast in Paris. In January, Williams, Gore and producer Kevin Wall used the World Economic Forum in Davos to announce a global event they hoped would reach 2 billion people across 193 television networks. They issued promotional materials promising 100 artists in seven shows. In May organisers delayed the event from a scheduled date of 18 June and said a free, public concert would be held in Paris in the autumn instead.
