How Do We Get to 350? Written by Joe Reilly and Jeannine PalmsSong Lyrics and Credits Follow:How do we get to 350? Lets get together and seeIt starts with you and it starts with me This is how we get to 350! This is how we get to 350! This how we get there!Our earth is home to many people over 6 billion Our sky holds carbon almost 400 Parts per millionThat’s too high of an atmospheric concentrationLets take a look at a simple math equationWe need to bring it down to at least 350If we bring it lower that would be niftyBut if this much carbon stays in our atmosphereHuman civilization might disappearWe don’t have to be frozen in our fearWe have everything we need to change right here!How do we get to 350? Lets get together and seeIt starts with you and it starts with me This is how we get to 350! This is how we get to 350! This how we get there!We can take collective climate actionby reducing, reusing its just subtractionHow can 390 become 350?I’m asking all the people in the citiesThe suburbs, the reservations, and the small townsLets start with our own two feet on the groundWe can walk instead of drive to where we need to beWe can plant more trees in our communityAnd garden and eat food grown in our back yardTurn off the lights! Please family it’s not that hardCompost, recycle, use a little lessAll we have to do is start with the word yes!Yes, yes we can, we can change our planWe can start right now from where we standAnd help the old folks to understandAnd every young woman and every young manHow do we get to 350? Lets get together and seeIt starts with you and it starts with me This is how we get to 350! This is how we get to 350! This how we get there!All the evidence is supportingWhat the scientists are reportingTo find a happy balance in this storyWe need 390 minus 40Well I was thinking more about 350I think it would be great to get some families Together and brainstorm about our collective decision To change the way we’re livin’ and create our vision 350 is our home, its the safe place to be, It is riding bikes climbing trees and playing in the leaves 350 is planting and growing gardens together It’s just the right balance for just the right weatherIt’s eating a meal with your family, invite your neighbors over for community!Its buying local food at the Farmer's Market, Instead of driving your car so much why don’t you park it? It’s the way we walk together on this healing path, It’s art, activism, science, medicine, and mathIt’s being fair to people in all other nationsIt’s a way to respect all of our relationsWe could write a book with 350 chapters We’ll start it with love and end it with laughterHa ha ha ha ha…How do we get to 350? Lets get together and seeIt starts with you and it starts with me This is how we get to 350! This is how we get to 350! This how we get there!Right Now.Joe Reilly-Acoustic Guitar, Vocals, Electric Bass, PercussionKid Singers-Erna Chiu, Leila Durrie, Iris Durrie, Maya Baum Ferrise, Lily Gray-Wright, Olivia Lyle, Dani Macorkindale, Eleanor Mills, Ruthie Mills, Luisa Ponvert, Carmen Quinn, Nina Sabatini, Gary Service, Anya Svintsitskaya, Alise Telfer, Gavin Telfer, Grace S.
