The Next Generation Needs Your Help
From an artist to another fellow artist, I, as a writer and lyricist, hope that you will reflexively understand and respond to me. Please forgive me for intruding into your consciousness with a random message proclaimed by a random stranger from a random part of the world. But it is an important and urgent plea.
Being able to create art is an extraordinary gift. In the creative process, we all strive to achieve the ultimate goal: an artwork of beauty, recognition, connection, meaning, influence and/or significance. However, success cannot reliably be attributed to any amount of talents, hard work and wishful thinking, but serendipity.
Serendipity has led me to you. You and I are living through a period on Earth that is undergoing astonishing changes and some of them have caused us and our future generations to be directly and gravely endangered by the greatest existential threat facing humankind: climate change. We are part and parcel of the problem and the solution. Other than reducing our personal carbon footprint, we must implore ourselves to do more, especially when the prospects of mitigating climate change have been getting worse instead of better.
Without the requisite fame and fortune as my megaphone, I figure my next best option is to persuade one person hopefully with the requisite fame and fortune at a time, to possibly pick up the mettle, take the good from any useful ideas, relay them to as many people as possible, and spur some prompt actions toward remediation. Our human world today is afflicted with many problems and we all have our preferred cause to champion with our limited time and resources. But I am pleading with you now to put climate change on the top of your priority because:
- Climate change is deadly and catastrophic, directly and indirectly.
- Climate change is negatively affecting and hurting the most vulnerable population more harshly than the rest and those people are least able to help themselves without us.
- Climate change is uniquely global, long-term, irreversible and uncertain, and therefore more intractable.
- Climate change has a tipping point and we are already late.
- Climate change is interconnected with our political, social and economic problems and it must be dealt with first.
- Climate change solutions require immediate universal commitments and actions and we should be volunteering to be the first ones.
- Climate stability is like the first domino of our civilization. Once it falls, the rest of its pillars will collapse in succession.
Being an effective and successful artist is a rare gift. You are in a unique and privileged position to rally and harness the collective energy and support from all the people that you are connected to with your examples and/or artworks to exert the immense power of beauty, recognition, connection, meaning, influence and/or significance for the benefits of humanity and our future generations. I hope you will take on this mantle and challenge to tackle climate change from now on.
We can ALL use Climate Art to touch hearts, change minds and spur actions. I am personally pledging to start NOW.
YOU can make a difference. Act on Climate. Join Climate Art and Climate Music. Fight for Climate Change. Save Humanity & Future.
