Thank you, FPSHOT! That is the kind of thing I love seeing.

As for George, he was good for the environment: 1) gardening and 2) George was a major contributor to making people aware of things they might not otherwise have considered, thus helping make this world a better place.

It won't play for me ... is there a transcript anywhere by any chance?

There's also a nice vid of George performing While My Guitar Gently Weeps just next door to this one.

Pity more people aren't as enviromentally aware as George was then maybe we wouldn't be so intent on killing our planet.

I believe people (as you and me, for instance) are very aware of the environmental problem. Organizations and governments are, as well, but they tend to look at it as an "externality", or if you prefer, as an obstacle to win more money to solve some other problems. I hate making generalizations but I believe the problem lies on the higher levels of power...

Of course we can all help by learning and make the next generations learn about the problem. Perhaps there's still time to "Save The World". Nice video. :smile1:

I agree that alot of lies with the higher powers but we must make sure that people are aware at our level and are taught to recycle, use cars less, buy goods with less packaging, buy more fairtrade produce etc.

Why of course, we must begin by ourselves.
