Alison Sudol: Status Quo Is Not Working To Create Sustainable World

Alison Sudol of A Fine Frenzy posted a message for Rio+20 at iucn.org, where the singer songwriter talked about her role as a Goodwill Ambassador for the global environmental organization.

“We know that the status quo is not working. What we need is deep-rooted change, a shift in social consciousness, where everyone plays their part in creating the sustainable world that we all want,” Sudol writes. “We are at a unique point in history - modern technology has given us the means to connect with each other on a global level, to combine our minds and imaginations towards creative solutions for the major problems our planet is facing, and to make our voices heard.”

Rio+20, United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development, will be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on June 20-22, 2012.
