“We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children” –
The theme for this year’s World Environment Day song and video developed by the Meghalaya Basin Management Agency borrows directly from this Native American proverb. It is called ‘For Those Who Come After’ and places children at the centre of the discourse on Climate Change for the simple
reason that it is their future that is at stake and hence it is their point of view that the music and lyrics of the video must be rooted in.
We’ve seen in the past few years how the most dynamic campaigns on the environment have been led by the young and it is in their bravery at asking direct and uncomfortable questions, their act of creating solidarities and in the awakening of their social consciousness that the song derives its
greatest inspiration from.
The song is sung in Khasi, Jaintia and Garo and musically it harks back to the simple but evocative rhythm of rock music – one that evokes the urge to sing along, to tap your feet and to be part of a shared experience; a community.
