So here we are, heading into our final day of this raise, and what would you expect us to do?
Trumpet our success?
There's no need to state the obvious.
Beg for additional pledges?
It's not our style to beg.
Thank everybody from the bottom of our hearts?
We've already done that.
Leave it all up to you?
It's always been left up to you.
Let's help save the world instead.
The United Nations report on climate change has issued "code red for humanity," and a roadmap has just been published for the music industry to lower carbon emissions and stop global destruction. The scientists responsible hope it will inspire millions of music fans to live more sustainably too.
The report has taken two years of research data supplied by the band Massive Attack, and it recommends "super low carbon practices to deal with how musicians, promoters, tour managers and agents should work in order to keep the rise in global warming restricted to 1.5 degrees."
Really? In which case there is one music organisation which has been putting every one of their recommendations into practice since the day it was founded. That's right, it's us!
