Washington, July 21 : After organising Live Earth concerts, former U.S. Vice President Al Gore is now moving on to host a television contest about saving the planet, and this time, Hollywood actress Cameron Diaz will accompany him.
The contest, 60 Seconds to Save the Earth, challenges viewers across the US, the UK, and the Republic of Ireland to create brief public service announcements about how the problem of global warming can be tackled.
For this project, Al Gore and Diaz will work in association with independent media company Current TV, and Alliance for Climate Protection, an organization in the US that works towards gaining people's support in solving the climate crisis.
"We are asking young adults to take a stance and use their creative voices to encourage change and help fight the climate crisis," Contactmusic quoted Gore as saying about his latest green initiative.
Diaz says that the project will offer an enormous opportunity to inculcate the desire for a change to save the Earth among the youth across the world.
"It is an exciting opportunity for young adults from around the world to inspire change because the planet needs a good publicist," she said.
She will be joined by Orlando Bloom, George Clooney, singer Rihanna and director Sam Mendes to select 20 finalists.
