Greenpeace Alternative NRG
Hollywood Records
No matter who purchases this
compact disc, the funds raised will
benefit the buyer in the end.
In the plethora of compact discs
supporting a cause—whether it be
AIDS research, women’s rights,
animal rights or world hunger —
along comes Greenpeace Alterna
tive NRG.
Alternative NRG (Energy, get
it?) is unique in that it is a result of
its very cause. The first in a series of
Greenpeace Records releases, Al
ternative NRG is geared to promote
an interest in urgent global envi
ronmental issues.
In order to start this trend, the
CD was mixed and recorded with
solar power. This power was pro
vided by “Cyrus” — Persian for
“sun” — the Greenpeace Mobile
Solar Generator.
The CD includes live tracks from
longtime Greenpeace supporters
R.E.M., U2 and Annie Lennox.
Environmental gurus Midnight Oil
join Sonic Youth, L7, UB40, P.M.
Dawn, James, Disposable Heroes
of Hiphoprisy, The Jesus and Mary
Chain, The Soup Dragons, Yothu
Yinda and the Boo-YaaT.R.I.B.E.
on the album, which also includes a
“duet” by Soundgarden and Brian
May (as Freddie Mercury turns in
his grave).
This collection of rap, metal,
dance and alternative rock songs
will be followed by compilations of
country-folk, classical, jazz and
comedy artists.
Greenpeace, founded in 1971
when it protested against U.S. nu
clear weapons testing off the coast
of Alaska, has launched several
environmental crusades in the past
few decades.
Now, the 4.5 million members
in 143 countries are devoted to
securing the environment from nu
clear testing and mining, defores
tation of tropical rain forests, the
greenhouse effect, toxic pollution
and the destruction of marine re
sources and habitat.
Alternative NRG is a rather calm
approach at fund-raising, consid
ering some of the Greenpeace ad
vocates arc very passionate in their
pursuits. Funds for the album will
go toward these pursuits, specifi
cally the search to develop new
energy policies with the Energy &
Climate Campaign.
Power from that big yellow thing
in the sky comes in with the Cyrus
generator. This 28-foot aluminim
box trailer is mounted with an array
of 40 solar modules. In order to
capture optimum sunlight, the ar
ray is hydraulically tilted toward
the sun.
The energy is collected and stored
in two batteries. This energy is
converted to 26,900 watts of stan
dard AC electrical current, which
provides 15 hours of electricity.
It’s essentially a solar-powered
recording studio. It’s the sun’s gift
to music and music’s gift to the
earth.
Although it would have been
better to get tracks not previously
released, Greenpeace Alternative
NRG is a great CD because of its
musical selections. Where else can
you get U2 and UB40 on the same
release? I mean, it’s worth buying
to listen to the happy couple May
and Soundgarden do its version of
“New Damage.”
The most fitting track on this
album comes from Disposable He
roes of Hiphoprisy with the
Greenpeace-ish message “Every
day Life Has Become a Health Risk .”
Other artists have selected envi
ronmental themes for the CD, such
as U2’s “Until the End of the
World.”
The CD comes in a fold-out,
colorful, thought-provoking card
board “box” to enhance your listen
ing pleasure.
Save the planet and save your
ears. We all live on this Earth and
we all listen to music.
Recycle your pop cans and use
the money to buy this album. A
harp seal will thank you.
