Finland's entry: You Control The Climate Change

We made this song to remind people of climate change as it hasn't vanished. We all have to do our part. The music and lyrics are by teacher Mika Vanhanen and 33 singers from 4-6th grade, Otso (10 yrs) as Frank The Frog. We come from Eno Primary School.

You Control The Climate Change!

I’m Frank The Frog, take part in ENO
Our task is a big one so listen, please don’t go.
We have a global problem, it is the climate change
But we have the power to make a change.

Turn down. Switch off. Recycle. And walk.
Four small changes: We act, we don’t just talk.
Make your pledges so Earth remains
You control the climate change

The heat is melting the ice at the Poles
sea levels rising who will save our souls?
Floods and storms we don’t need them more
climate change is knocking on the door.

Turn down. Switch off. Recycle. And walk.
Four small changes: We act, we don’t just talk.
Make your pledges so Earth remains
You control the climate change

It’s not just people who make this possible
governments and industries they are responsible
We will together prevent this tragedy
So make us happy and put your pledge in me!

Plant a tree, two or three in the end of May
Tiny drops will form a sea of action every day
You are in let it burn like Frank, you’re far from zero
A step by step you will turn into a climate hero
H – E – R – O !

Turn down. Switch off. Recycle. And walk.
Four small changes: We act, we don’t just talk.
Make your pledges and make the change:
You control the climate change
We control the climate change.

What's the name of that frog? :)

Thanks for everybody! We enjoyed doing the song and kids are proud of themselves.

Marek: Frog is called Frank. It is also the mascot for the climate change campaign for the ENO Programme that was launched at Eno Primary School in 2000. Feel free to make your pledge in Frank's web bank.
