Video description: found footage video starting with clips of Queen, Dolly Parton, Miles Davis and Public Enemy performing to large crowds. After 10 seconds, the clips switch to focus on the human impacts of climate crisis: people escaping a flooding arena, an aerial shot of flooded homes and gardens, an aerial shot of destroyed apartments and public spaces. Then the focus moves to the role of musicians with clips of festivals followed by photos and text that say “ethical festivals,” “responsible merchandise,” “sustainable touring” and “accessible events.” The video ends with text on black slides that says “The climate emergency affects us all. Be part of the solution: theMU.org/climate-emergency” followed by the Musicians’ Union logo.
