BIZ UNITES IN CLIMATE CHANGE FIGHT

7/12/19

The British music industry has united to sign a declaration that promises to take urgent action over the environmental impact of its practices. UMG, Sony, Warner, Beggars Group are among those to have signed the pledge.

The newly formed Music Declares Emergency Group (MDE) has administered the declaration, which promises action against a “climate and ecological emergency.”

The declaration calls on governments and media institutions to tell the truth about the emergency, which has arisen from “global injustices,” and to act now to reverse biodiversity loss and reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by no later than 2030. It also acknowledges the environmental impact of music industry practices while committing to taking urgent action.
