Re-recording in progress…

Thank you to everyone who participated in the eco-anthem competition. We've received over 200 powerful, inspiring anthems from nature lovers from around the world.

We quickly learned that the definition of an eco-anthem varied greatly: Some songs that were submitted were punchy and punky; others took a softer, more lyrical approach. All the songs share a profound sense of attachment and reverence for our home planet, seeking to bridge the yearning disconnect between modern humanity and the natural world. 

Winners from around the world are currently recording their winning tracks! We will be announcing winners shortly.

Annie Lennox, Eurythmics

“Eco–Anthem is a timely initiative, calling upon all songwriters to create a simple, inspiring anthem that everyone can sing to express love and reverence for Nature, Humanity, and Future Generations. I love this idea and am really curious to hear the winning Eco–Anthem!”

Mick Jones, The Clash

“I am pleased to endorse this international competition. The world needs uplifting messages, and there is no better way to present them than as songs that people may want to sing together. I am looking forward to listening to the songs that emerge from this Eco–Anthem competition.”

With thanks to our supporters

We’d like to thank the supporters of this project and celebrate the collaborative spirit in which it was brought into existence. The idea was inspired by author and filmmaker, Herbert Girardet, supported by author and founder of the Resurgence Trust, Satish Kumar, and the projected was coordinated by Yasmin Dahnoun.

We extend our special thanks to the generous support of the Tedworth Charitable Trust, Fattoria La Vialla, and The Resurgence Trust, as well as to those who helped spread the message far and wide, including The Ecologist, and Green Music Australia.
