Campaign to bring Leeds to standstill - Yorkshire Evening Post
IF you're walking through Leeds on Friday night next week and all the people around you suddenly stop in their tracks, don't panic.
More than 100 people are set to take part in the first ever 'Leeds Freeze', an event intended to raise awareness about global warming.
At a set time, whatever the volunteers are doing – talking on a mobile, walking up steps, giving directions, eating a burger – they will stop.
Completely. And they will stay like that for five whole minutes.
A similar stunt was carried out in New York's Grand Central Station and caused widespread confusion.
The two people behind the Leeds stunt, Matt Carmichael, 35, and Dr Ron Wiener, 66, are members of environmental pressure group Stop Climate Chaos Leeds.
