Because I’m happy…

Ever since hearing so much support for action on renewable energy in Workstream 2, ECO has had an ear worm on our mind…

 

It’s totally not crazy what I’m ‘bout to say

Sunshine she’s here, fossil fuels can take a break

Solar power’s gonna fill this space

With the sunshine and wind power showing the way

 

Because I’m happy

Clap along if you feel like a room with PV on the roof

Because I’m happy

Clap along if you feel like Renewable Energy is the truth

Because I’m happy

Clap along if you know what sustainability is to you

Because I’m happy

Clap along if you feel like renewable energy’s what you wanna do

 

Here come fossil fuels talking CCS and crap,

Yeah,

Don’t give all you got, you gotta hold 80% back,

Yeah,

Don’t you worry ‘bout the economy we’ll be just fine,

Yeah,

No offence to you, don’t waste your time

Here’s why

 

Because I’m happy

Clap along in South Africa with 4 million solar roofs

Because I’m happy

Clap along with Uruguay’s 1.3% GDP investment in wind power that’s the truth

Because I’m happy

Clap along with Mauritius, Costa Rica, South Africa, Nicaragua* and for you

Because I’m happy

Clap along if you feel like renewable energy’s what you wanna do

 

Pollution has to go down

Looking at emissions goin’ down

The level’s too high

Bring it down

Need policies to bring pollution down

I said

Let me tell you ‘bout

Solar brings pollution down

Can’t help but

Bring it down

The levels too high

Wind brings emissions down

Can’t help but

Bring emissions down

 

I said

 

Because I’m happy

Clap along with Uruguay with a 90% (RE) 2015 target as the proof

Because I’m happy

Clap along with Mauritius for 60% (RE) by 2025 and that‘s the truth

Because I’m happy

Clap along with Nicaragua for 90% (RE) by 2020 if you know what happiness is to you

Because I’m happy

Clap along with Costa Rica for 100% (RE) by 2021 if you feel like that’s what we ought to do!
