BECOME A ROCK 'n RENEW ARTIST-BAND-FAN-or ACTIVIST-
I've always been concerned with the planet's health, and I've often talked about it with fans at shows, but i learned how to truly become an activist after reading Laurie David's book Stop Global Warming- The Solution Is You: An Activists Guide.
After meeting Laurie, it really dawned on me that as artists, and musicians and as fans of art and music, we have all the tools we need to be activists everyday in the fight against global warming.
Go to Stopglobalwarming.org and sign up for the virtual march- Join the 827,851 other people who are DEMANDING OUR LEADERS FREEZE AND REDUCE CARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS NOW.WE ARE ALL CONTRIBUTORS TO GLOBAL WARMING AND WE ALL NEED TO BE PART OF THE SOLUTION!
