Singers including Billie Eilish and Lenny Kravitz, politicians and activists took to the stage in Paris on Thursday at a concert calling for action on climate change and inequality as world leaders met at the Summit for a New Global Financing Pact.
STORY: Organized by non-profit group Global Citizen, the "Power Our Planet: Live in Paris" event featured musical performances and speeches by climate activists and leaders from Brazil, Kenya, Barbados and the World Bank as well as famous faces including Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh.

"It is such an urgent moment that we're in... We really need to change our entire system so that the people most impacted by the climate crisis get what they need to fight it," Eilish said on a stage at Paris' Champ de Mars park around the Eiffel Tower.

During his set, Kravitz told the crowd: "I want us all to be part of the solution, not the problem".

"And all of us need to act today in order to save the planet tomorrow. I see so many young people in here and you're the ones who need to make that progress," said Barbadian prime minister Mia Mottley.
