7月7日 Fuss not...What's the fuss about? There are some folks getting together to raise awareness about the mess we are making of our planet. They happen to be musicians so they are doing what they do, they are making music. While they are making music, they are going to share their views on climate change.
Music has been used for political messaging since bards sang for kings and perhaps even before that time. Now the musicians of our time are sending a message through their music to raise public awareness to the danger of continuing to pollute our planet. People will listen to that message. People are watching that message. They are watching to see if the performers are living what they are saying.
What the watchers will see is actually the process of change. Some performers will walk the talk by living in a way the conserves energy and preserves the health of our environment. Other performers will not be there yet. They will drive gas guzzling vehicles, forget to recycle their trash, and eat a lot of beef. This doesn't mean they don't believe what they are saying or that their message is any less real. What is does mean is that they happen to be human. And like all humans, change of habit comes slowly.
It's like the person who decides to eat healthier food and then stops at Dairy Queen for a milkshake. Over a whole year, they might do lots of things that improve their eating, but there will still be plenty of habits that won't change so quickly. In any habit change, whether stopping smoking or stopping polluting, awareness and recognition that there is a problem has to come first. Then little by little, the old way of doing things is changed and replaced with new ways. This doesn't happen overnight. And it won't happen at the Live Earth concert overnight for anyone, not even the musicians.
My advice (for what it's worth), watch the concert, "mind your own back porch" as my mom would say, and fuss not lest ye be found out to be just as inconsistent in some area of your life. 引用通告此日志的引用通告 URL 是： http://biggreenplanet.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!2750EECCE3D2D2F6!224.trak 引用此项的网络日志
