2/2 The single is inspired by our travels to the beautiful Lake Kussharo in Japan. Hokkaido’s stunning landscape of alpine-like meadows and volcanos really made a huge impression. It felt incredibly tranquil, in contrast with the hustle and bustle of all the cities we would usually tour to.

Today is #EarthDay & we’re thinking of all the ways the climate crisis is impacting our world & ALL the people in it.

We’re particularly thinking of those in the Global South who are experiencing the biggest effects of the #ClimateCrisis despite contributing the least.

Share to spread awareness 💚
