Resolution Song – a global movement of voices singing a common song for peace and climate action

Today I was blown away by the beauty of a song woven together of voices from around the world - Resolution Song !

I was completely unaware of the Planet Resolution movement that has now seen this song sung by thousands of people in over 100 countries. Their YouTube channel is full of inspiring versions of this song, and you can see even more at the YouTube hashtags #planetresolution and #NoMusicOnADeadPlanet

This article by Abbey Wright in April 2022 explains the origins of this project back in 2019 and how it evolved into a global movement. I liked this part:

Resolution represents hope. It is an expression of global unity and a celebration of diversity. Resolution is a living, breathing example of the kind of global collaboration that we need to solve the planetary emergency. 

While there was a big push for people recording songs back around Earth Day 2022 in April, the project continues to ask people to record their own versions and publish it with the hashtags. The sheet music is available on planetresolution.com

I love seeing music bringing people together in this way!
