Radiohead's boy wonder to play green gig

Good news for climate pop pickers: Thom Yorke, he of Radiohead fame, is going to play this year's Big Ask gig. The concert's basically a big-up for the campaign by Friends of the Earth - and a stack of other charities - to get the government to enshrine in law a 3 per cent reduction in green house emissions each year. As the Big Ask's proponents point out, Tony & Co (or Cameron & Co) will be able to continue happily missing  targets until we make reductions law - and enforcable with nasty fines. The gig's in London on 1st May. More info on The Big ask site here.
