Planet A March and Concert for the Climate in New Zealand

Greenpeace New Zealand's Sign On campaign organised a march and free concert in Auckland two days before the start of the international climate talks in Copenhagen. An estimated 4000 marched from Albert Park up the city's main street to Myers Park showing their support for the campaign. This was followed by a four hour concert headlined by Don McGlashan, the Sami Sisters, Lucy Lawless and the Sunshine Band, Midnight Youth and Opshop. The event was MC'd by Sign On ambassador and comedian Rhys Darby who was joined by other ambassadors including actors Lucy Lawless, Keisha Castle Hughes, Toni Potter, Sarah Thomson, Harry McNaughton and Robyn Malcolm, businessman Geoff Ross and Waitakere Mayor Bob Harvey.
