Hi, my name is Nimo, I run a non-profit called Empty Hands Music, which uses music to inspire positive change. As Earth Day (April 22) approaches, I would like to share with you a brand new song and music video called “Granddaughter's Eyes” that offers a uniquely moving perspective on climate action. It could be an excellent tool to facilitate deeper conversations between educators and students on climate change—in a fun way!

Some lyrics from the song: 

We’re running out of breath, cuz we’re cutting down the pines,

running out of water, so we’re cutting in the lines

7.7, 8 billion and the 9, human beings watching the land sink while the water rises,

We have also created a lesson plan/student engagement interaction tool for the music video so that it could be further used in climate education: https://tinyurl.com/4enuskez
