When a group of young people concerned about climate change came together at a hip hop recording workshop in Kyogle (regional NSW, Australia), the result was the song “Protect the World”. The kids (aged 11-17 years) wrote the words on the spot. They play all the instruments on the track- keyboard, flutes, harp, drums, beatbox, clapping and bass under the guidance of Karuna Bajracharya, a young DJ and hip-hop recording artist, who facilitated the workshop and produced the soundtrack. Some of the workshop participants are members of the Kyogle High School climate group.

From a friend in Newcastle, NSW
Great song and video, thanks for sharing it. I would like to invite the climate group to add the video to the United Nations Development Programme Youth Climate Change Project that I am currently working on. The if selected as the best submission it would allow one of the youth that worked on the song to attend the World Youth Congress 2008 in Quebec City, Quebec Canada. The Kyogle High School climate group can get more information on the project at http://www.peacechild.org/climate or email me at media@peacechild.org
