Greta Thunberg is now a singing sensation with new title track in The 1975's album

Greta Thunberg, one of the most prominent and one of the youngest climate warriors of our times, has taken a step into the world of music by lending her voice to the title track of the fourth album, Notes on a Conditional Form (NOACF)__, by the band ‘The 1975’. The album is set to be released next year but this track has had an early release. [caption id=“attachment_7053691” align=“alignnone” width=“1280”]Greta Thunberg at the school strike for climate.

She starts off by saying, “We are in the beginning of a climate and ecological crisis and we need to call it what it is, an Emergency.”

She says that we do not know the entire situation and we do not have the answers but human beings as a species have not failed even though the political movements have.

She encourages everyone to stop being polite when talking about climate change and be clear about. She goes on to say that there is hope but only if we change. The systems that are currently in place are not working and need to be changed. But that can’t happen without individual changes as well. She says that we need to stop the greenhouse gas emissions and stop the climate from warming further than the 1.5-degree limit set by the Paris Agreement.

She ends her essay by asking people to wake up, to do the impossible and not just their best, to resort to civil disobedience but more importantly to rebel.

On Thunberg’s request, the proceeds from this song will be given to a socio-political movement, Extinction Rebellion. Named after the sixth mass extinction that is currently going on, this grassroots level movement is fighting climate change. They use civil disobedience and non-violence as a way to get their message across. [caption id=“attachment_7057341” align=“alignnone” width=“1000”]poster of the Extinction rebellion movement.

They have released three albums and NOACF is their fourth. According to BBC, they recorded this song and the album last year along with their third album. Their website also plays this song as soon as it loads. She is the first non-member to record a song for the group.

She has also started a non-profit organization, Fridays for Future that has spread all over the world that coordinates these school strikes on a global scale
