Sheryl Crow Tours For Global Warming
Sheryl Crow is riding on a bus that uses biodiesel fuel and is on an 11-stop college tour to raise awareness about global warming. Laurie David, the Grammy-winning singer is joining her. David won the Oscar for best documentary when she produced “An Inconvenient Truth”, a film on climate change.
Each stop on the tour will include remarks by David, a short performance by Crow, clips from “An Inconvenient Truth” and a dialogue with students. “The more I learn about global warming, the more I know that we all have to do something to be a part of the solution,” Crow, 45, said in a statement. “I am thrilled Laurie and I have the opportunity to go on the road and combine our efforts to educate the next generation on how they can make a difference.”
The “Stop Global Warming College Tour” opened Monday at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. It ends April 22, which is Earth Day, at George Washington University in Washington. Other stops are Texas A&M in College Station; Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge; Loyola University in New Orleans; the University of Alabama at Birmingham; the University of Florida in Gainesville; Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro; Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn.; the University of Virginia in Charlottesville; and the University of Maryland in College Park.
