ClientEarth is at the forefront of changing the way the planet’s resources are governed. They have a positive and pragmatic approach to environmental issues, improving and enforcing environmental law. Coldplay are proud to support them.”
ClientEarth recently released the following statement on the band’s support:
To have one of the world’s most successful groups supporting our work is absolutely fantastic,” CEO James Thornton said. “Coldplay have long been strong advocates for environmental issues, and we are extremely pleased that they will continue to speak out for these most important of issues alongside us.”
