About the art

lyrics:
CHORUS: Ninety-nine utterly ridiculous ways, to end climate change,
how can you, say that we’re doomed,
when there’s so many ways to end climate change

Each day at noon, we all go outside, and jump at the same time
to push earth away, from the sun’s heat of the day
and that’s how we end climate change

CHORUS

Do you remember chia pets? The next to grow grass is you,
implant it there instead of your hair,
and that's how we end climate change

Permafrost and sea ice, are melting way too fast,
To insulate it, let's knit a blanket,
and that's how we end climate change
Engineer human beings, to photosynthesize,
carbon take in, put out oxygen
and that's how we end climate change

Cover the parking lots, roads and roofs, with bright and shiny foil
When sun rays attack, reflect them back
And that's how we end climate change

They use up too much resource, their footprint is too big,
honey let's shrink, the humans - just think!
that's how we'll end climate change

Smother the fossil fuel execs, with hugs and puppy kisses,
In a few days, they'll give up their ways,
And that's how we end climate change

(Words by Sara Mosenkis, melody adapted from the US/Canadian folk song "99 bottles of beer on the wall")

About the artist

When Sara Mosenkis isn't writing Jewish liturgical music or silly songs about ending climate change, she can often be found cooking, reading a little bit about everything, or helping mission-driven organizations keep their operations running smoothly. She starts most days by greeting the plants in her garden.
