I like keeping up with who’s doing what about the climate crises, so I thought, “What can I do, personally?”
So I decided to write a song, a “call to action” to address the crisis.
I’m old, but after reading something in Bill McKibben’s “The Crucial Years” newsletter on SubStack, about how our kids are pissed off by promises and inaction, I took a couple of my old friends into the studio and recorded “We Were Thieves.” I entered it into NPR’s “Tiny Desk Contest,” and included subtitles.
It’s rock and roll from a 3-piece who’s ages total 212 years, but we wanted to do our bit. I’m hoping you will share the following link with your subscribers:
'and the truth, well it don't bear its teeth, like it used to do' - nice lyrics! Thanks for sharing Sea we will add it to the collection of reader responses we share out from time to time
Thank you for this inspiring, can-do article. It provides an example of ways in which component groups of my healthcare professional association might want to take on SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time-framed) goals supporting environmental health.
