A SINGING MOVEMENT

"If the movement to keep the planet's climate in some kind of balance is going to succeed, it needs to be a singing movement— just like the civil rights movement and the peace movement and all the other occasions when people have gathered their courage and spread their message by sharing song.The 'We Shall Overcome' for this moment may or may not have been written yet, but it, and a thousand others, are just as important as new light bulbs to dealing with global warming." Bill McKibben (Founder of "Step it Up 2007)

A Last Chance for Civilization by Bill McKibben

Even for Americans, constitutionally convinced thatthere will always be a second act, and a third, and a do-over after that, and,if necessary, a little public repentance and forgiveness and a Brand New Start-- even for us, the world looks a little Terminal right now.


CREATE WITH US

Imagine music that wakes us up to the urgent need for environmental global revolution.

Thousands of environmental songs sailing the airwaves, sounding out in the i-pods sitting in millions of ears; playing in our cars, living rooms, clubs, and all the stages of the world.

Climate change is so sweeping in its impact and irreversible in its destructive power, it will radically alter human existence. Some of the major obstacles to adopting new technologies lie in vested interests, cultural barriers to change and simple lack of awareness.

Music will help break the brain barriers of denial, paralyzing fear, indifference, and pessimism. It will raise awareness in a way that only music can.

- 1,000 songs, and more, written and recorded by Earth Day 2009

- Radio stations playing MUSE songs internationally all day on every Earth Day.

- A worldwide network of MUSE Campaign concerts. Each musician will dedicate one of their shows to raising awareness about climate change.

- CD compilations by MUSE artists.

- A growing music library of environmental themed songs that testify to this historical, monumental time in human and earth history.

- MUSE Tunes will be heard in documentaries, classrooms, school projects, film, video, stage, rallies . . . on-line, YouTube, radio, ipods, C.D.'s . . .

Please become a patron of the eco-arts and help support the MUSE Campaign. We invite your participation and plainly need your donations.

Featured Music

WRITE A LOVE SONG TO THE EARTH

Write the Environmental Anthem
of the Decade,
a political protest song,
songs of fire and ice,
of passion, poetry and plain talk.

Write the musical score to a race against time and apathy.
Sing an elegy to the great sixth extinction of species,
for the families already plunged into famine.

Write about the end of a 10,000-year-old era,
of this astounding beginning,
of a true, wise way to see/use/cycle nature,
of questions without answers.
Of a growing reverence for life in all its forms.

Of revelation in chaos: outrageous invention.
                                                    Simplicity.
The dawn of human ecological wisdom.
Write the Environmental Hit Single of All Time.
