The day Pete Seeger died, Susan Lince composed a song on climate change in honor of Pete. The song, written as a lament spoken back to us by our grandchildren and all future generations, asks repeatedly “You knew… Why didn’t you take a stand?”
Susan and John Lince-Hopkins created Requiem2020.org as a means of rallying artists to widen public consciousness and awaken a new sense of ecological responsibility in the face of climate change and climate departure. John and Susan taught and painted in Alaska. John, a scientist as well as painter, helped supervise the clean-up operation following Exxon-Valdez.

Views from the Edge 
Climate: Anyone remember Emperor Ming the Merciless of planet Mongo? He never sought to cover up his evil deeds. He was proud of them. His death ray was set to blast the climate of his enemies… especially earth and Flash Gordon. Our climate changers seem to think that climate destruction is just the price you pays for a few decades of grand living.
