    Loved the animations, does anyone here know how this stuff is made?
    I think it's cool that a lot of artists come together to raise awareness on the issues and I am happy the environment is getting more and more attention in recent times. (even though I don't really think I would listen to this song)
    On the website https://welovetheearth.org/support-the-song/ they state the profits of the song go to charities which is great, especially considering how there's like 20(?) different artists that can spread the song to their fan base.
    Well here's my positive outlook, anyone want to tell my why I'm wrong and this is bad?

      The video description has a ton of credits in it, and from some quick googling of those, it looks like the companies behind it were RYOT Studio and DYAD so you might be able to find info on their particular processes.

      But more generally... animation software (e.g. Autodesk Maya) and post-production software (e.g. Adobe Premiere) is typically what's used to make stuff like this... but which particular software varies depending on the studio and the requirements for the animation.

    On the solutions page, they don't include nuclear power as an option for energy. With just wind and solar (and hydro - which they don't really touch on) we still need either massive energy storage...

    On the solutions page, they don't include nuclear power as an option for energy. With just wind and solar (and hydro - which they don't really touch on) we still need either massive energy storage solutions or "peaking" power plants to deal with the intermittent nature of solar and wind energy availability. If we don't embrace nuclear, those peaking power plants will likely be natural gas powered (unless we can build more hydro dams and use that for energy storage).

        I wouldn't call this trap music, I think that tag shouldn't be there.

          But people are welcome to dispute genre tags and I will change them if they do, though... so I removed rap.trap and added r&b, since now having actually listened to the song it definitely has elements of that.
