Climate News Is Depressing, Let's Make A Song

As It Happens: Song A Day - A podcast by Jonathan Mann

In August of 2019, Iceland marked the loss of a glacier. 100 or so people, including the Prime Minsiter, walked up the mountain to hold a ceremony and install a plaque that reads , “Ok is the first Icelandic glacier to lose its status as a glacier. In the next 200 years all our glaciers are expected to follow the same path. This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done Only you know if we did it.” I saw this bit of news go by and knew immediately that I wanted to write a song about it.
