On the first day of COP21, music, poetry and talks fill London's Eurostar hub as UK delegates board the trains bound for Paris to participate in the most crucial United Nations summit in history.

The event will be hosted by BBC Radio 1 presenter Gemma Cairney and feature UN Climate Poet Kathy Jetnil-Kijiner topped off with a barnstorming headline performance by internationally acclaimed beatboxer Shlomo, who has worked with some of the biggest names in music including Bjork, Damon Albarn, Lily Allen, Jarvis Cocker, Martha Wainwright, and The Specials. Shlomo took part in Cape Farewell's 2008 expedition to the Arctic to raise awareness of ice melt and global warming. 

Also speaking will be David Buckland, Director of Cape Farewell, the UK organisation behind the ArtCop21 programme, and Juliet Davenport, founder of Good Energy.

The event will also feature a very special surprise act for many of the 73,000 people who pass through the station each day, celebrating the power of collaboration and community to bring about positive change, and act as an urgent call to the politicians in Paris to commit to major climate action - so don't miss out!
