On October 1st, over 55 of the world's top celebrities that included names like British rock band Duran Duran and French actress Marian Cotillard, came together, to record a song that draws attention to the global warming crises.
The recording of the 'Beds'r'Burning', originally sung by Australian group 'Midnight Oil', was part of a media awareness campaign highlighting the threats of climate change. It was organized by Geneva -based Humanitarian Forum, who is hoping that these kinds of campaigns will convince world leaders to reach an agreement about how to handle global warming, at the upcoming UN sponsored conference in Copenhagen .
Whether the campaign works or not, the song, which can be downloaded for free, is definitely catchy - one that is bound to be sung over and over again.
