Synopsis
'Worldwide Suicide’ depicts a house on fire. Each room represents an ecosystem, in which a human from every stage of life is under serious threat. The survival of humanity faces its greatest challenge yet . . . overcoming the inertia and dysfunction within ourselves . . . to effect positive action and real change.
The Antarctic has reached an all time high temperature of 20.7*C. The Australian bushfires have burned over 12 million hectares of land, killing over 1 billion animals. The Climate Crisis is pounding on our door and we need to take action while there is still a window to turn it around. It’s time for profound systemic change as¬ individuals and as a community.
NOTE: the band (In Hearts Wake) pledged that for every 1k views of the video a tree would be planted in the hills of Byron Bay. On August 8th the band along with their help of their fans planted 1100 native rainforest trees in Goonengerry NSW.
