Abstract

The issue of responding to human actions which had caused the environmental pollution and lowering of life quality is hardly alien to Polish rock musicians. Since the 1980s they have been addressing it in their songs, which is compounded with them leading pro-climate lifestyle. This article discusses both, some selected instances of the said musicians’ activism and the lyrical content they proposed to their audiences, tailored to instigate the readers to reflect upon contemporality and the future of the Earth.
