Last week, as part of the “Requiem for Arctic Ice” Greenpeace protest, Charlotte Church sang a song outside Shell’s UK HQ asking the company’s staff to leave the fragile Arctic alone, as hundreds lined the streets to watch. The performance reminds us of the power of music — and the power of the environmental movement.
Watch her performance.
