To honor this day I’ve decided publish two songs related to the environment and climate change, well one of them is. The other one is more related to snow. But I find it somewhat relevant anyways. 

Swedish Winters

This song actually is about the climate change. It a very sad goodbye to the Swedish winters, which will be gone unless we act soon (not just the Swedish ones of course). I guess in one way the market is already acting, as we might have to say goodbye to GM, Chrysler and Ford. I hope you like the song.

Som Snö

This song is basically the first song I’ve written in Swedish. It’s called Som Snö (it would translate to something like ‘As Snow’ or ‘Like Snow’) and is about a fragile relationship that is shaky but still very important and necessary. The snow describes how fragile the relationship is; if the temprature changes just a little, the snow will melt, the relationship will be gone. Like I said, it’s not directly about climate change but in a way it kinda is.

Sadly, I have found that there is very little information on the World Climate Day (or the UN Climate Day, as I think it’s called in Sweden at least). I tried to google it doesn’t give much. Spread the word, and more importantly, take care of our planet – as far as we know, we’ve only got one.
