Revista e NRDC

Billie Joe e Adrienne estão na nova edição da revista "Punk Rock Confidencial" na qual estão também na capa. Só sai na América a 15 de Dezembro.


Billie Joe escreveu uma carta a um fã a explicar porque se juntaram a NRDC, podem ver a seguir o que ele escreveu:

Dear Green Day fan,

I grew up in an oil refinery town. When I was four years old, I saw giant oil refineries spitting pollution into the sky, and that pollution was going into my lungs. It was the first time I felt the terrible effects of America’s dependence on oil.

America’s oil habit has put us in serious trouble. While oil companies are collecting bigger profits than any companies in history, we’re suffering from global warming and watching more and more of our public lands get destroyed by oil drilling. Last year, we sent more than a hundred billion dollars in oil money to undemocratic countries in the Middle East.

We’ve all got to do our part to stop America’s oil addiction. That’s why Mike, Tre, and I have joined forces with NRDC (the Natural Resources Defense Council) and launched a new website, http://www.greendaynrdc.com.

We’re supporting NRDC’s Move America Beyond Oil campaign, which can radically reduce our dependence on oil. If you haven’t already, click here to watch our new video and tell President Bush to Move America Beyond Oil.

A lot of people feel overwhelmed by our government. But a democracy is supposed to be a government run by the people: we elect politicians to office, so we have control over the people who are making decisions for us. It’s okay and very rebellious to speak up and take responsibility for our environment, to take care of the air that we breathe and the water that we drink.

Click here to check out our new video and write to the President, and don’t forget to visit out our new site at http://www.greendaynrdc.com.

Sincerely,

Billie Joe Armstrong
