The Live Earth India concert, which set to feature acts such as Bon Jovi, WILL.I.AM and Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters, has been canceled due to the Mumbai tragedy.

Everyone involved in the canceled Dec. 7 event is “stunned and saddened by the tragic events of the past few days in our host city Mumbai,” said Live Earth founder Kevin Wall and the Office of Al Gore in a joint statement.

They added: “We will continue to work for solutions to the climate crisis for the good of the people of India and around the world. But for now, our thoughts and our prayers are with the victims of this terrible attack, with the bereaved, with the people of Mumbai and with everyone in India.”
