There's a Fire in the Mountain Town (Original Song)
Thoughts and concerns with the people of Jasper today. 30-50% of the structures in the town have been destroyed by the fire. This is just one of many wildfires raging across Canada. While forest fires are natural phenomenon, anthropogenic climate change contributes to greater intensity and frequency. Canada's vast forests should serve as a global carbon sink but instead, for the last few decades, forest fires as well as human emissions have made Canada a net carbon emitter. We must demand climate action now.
Lyrics:
The flames pushed through to the heart of Jasper
Family homes now ash on the ground
The sky turns red as the firefighter’s battle
To keep it contained and protect what remains
Year and year the devastation grows
Another record broke, another terrible blow
There’s a fire raging in the mountain town
Flames as high as the ember sky
No building safe, no home is sound
There’s a fire raging in the mountain town
The greed of the few outweighs the needs of the many
There’s always a cause, not just a terrible tragedy
Fossil fuel companies, raking in profit
While the fires rage across the whole of the continent
Temperatures rising as emissions soar
There’s oil to burn, its what fuel’s the war
There’s a fire raging in the mountain town
Flames as high as the ember sky
No building safe, no home is sound
There’s a fire raging in the mountain town x4
