(I'm sorry, but some people will do their best).
We can give a twist to our bad habits from now on.
So just let's do it.
Because we can.
Because switching off the lights for one hour, one day, isn't going to solve
the challenge presented by climate change...
Greenpeace did something in Paris, see Changing Life...
The way we use the planet's resources makes up our ecological footprint.

Focusing on the legendary African singer and activist Fela
Anikulapo Kuti and his son Femi, Suffering and Smiling
depicts the impact of their politically charged music. Following Nigeria’s independence
in 1960, Fela used his songs to speak out against the country’s corrupt leaders.
Since independence the military and political elite have enriched themselves by allowing
Nigeria’s oil and natural resources to be stripped by multinational corporations with little
benefit to ordinary Nigerians. Fela gave voice to Nigeria’s disenfranchised underclass
and sang of a free and united Africa. Upon his death in 1997, Femi has continued his
father’s legacy. Equally passionate and charismatic, he sings about the dire situation
in his country, asks why the world’s most resource – rich continent has the poorest
people, and struggles to maintain a vision of better days ahead for the common people
of Nigeria.
