The British environment group, The Climate Coalition, tapped rocker Liam Gallagher and photographer Rankin to make a Christmas-themed appeal to fight climate crisis.
Then Gallagher shares his concern for the future: "But in the grand scheme of things, our Earth is too hot, and it’s getting even hotter. Our seasons are getting confused, lots of birds are nesting earlier and spring flowers are coming out too soon." The snowman is intrigued by the flowers, before he is reduced to a puddle. "This is what climate change looks like" says Gallagher, "It's affecting so many of the things we love, both here in our own backyards and around the world."
Rankin enthused to NME, "We were over the moon to have the iconic voice of Liam to give the piece a twist and really get it noticed.”
