‘Community’ - with guest Heidi Lenffer from FEAT (Future Energy Artists) and Cloud Control Sounds Like A Plan

    • Society & Culture

A couple of years ago musician Heidi Lenffer, keyboardist with the band Cloud Control, was shocked when she looked into her band’s touring carbon footprint. Her response was fantastically positive: she formed FEAT. (Future Energy Artists) an investment scheme created by musicians that funded the build of a clean energy solar farm. It was a way for some of Australia's best known acts to offset their touring, but also invest in their future along with everyone else's. It's an example of music and climate action colliding with true innovation and the power of collective thinking. And who knows, maybe it's a scheme that can make its way around the world?

Hosts Fay Milton and Greg Cochrane also discuss the latest headlines in music/climate, and leave you with some recommendations.
