Music Declares Emergency Canada: How are musicians addressing the climate crisis?

What can our favourite musician do about the climate crisis? Music Declares Emergency brings together artists, music industry professionals and music fans to call for an immediate government response to the climate emergency. You may recognize their slogan, No Music On A Dead Planet. The group believes in the power of music to promote cultural change needed to create a better future. Kim Fry is the coordinator of Music Declares Emergency Canada and was instrumental in bringing the chapter to Canada. Kim joined Earth Day Party hosts, Shannon Burns and Sarah Christie, to share how some of our favourite Canadian artists are using their music to address the climate crisis. We hear examples of creative merch solutions, vinyl alternatives, upcycling used t-shirts, greener forms of transportation and more. Kim also explains the important role global artists like Billie Eilish and Coldplay have played in normalizing sustainable solutions to touring. For music fans, Kim offers solutions to greening your concert experience as well.
