 That song was The Voice of My Great Granddaughter by Kelly Ragsdale, part of the Davis Climate Strike songbook. Earth Day has been celebrated with large public gatherings worldwide for 50 years. This year, KDRT is working with the Davis Climate Strike and a coalition of climate activists from Davis, Yolo, Solano, and Sacramento counties to put together a special Earth Day Sing Out for you. You can join your voice and song and take action from your home in defense of a healthier environment. The lyrics to all these songs that you're about to hear and links to their recordings made by local musicians in honor of Earth Day are on the Climate Strike website at climatestrikedavis.com. It's all one word, climatestrikedavis.com, along with ideas for taking action to protect our climate for future generations. Project Partner, the Davis Independent Music Initiative, is collecting funds to sponsor local musicians to record Earth Day songs released from now all the way until our local Earth Holiday Whole Earth Festival on May 9th. Using the hashtag Earth Day Sing Out, that's hashtag Earth Day Sing Out, all one word on social media. Funds can be donated to paypal.me-davis-i-m-i.
