A Special Comeback Of a Rock Band

The well known British rock band Pink Floyd has collaborated with Ukrainian singer Andriy Khlyvnyuk, on their new song Hey Hey Rise Up. This the first songs which the band has produced since their split in 1985. Moreover, the proceeds from the song are going to the Ukrainian humanitarian relief.

In my opinion, it was a high time for musicians to take a stand for the Ukrainian cause. They can reach people through artistry like no other news outlet. Helping those who need help and collaborating with the person who had the first hand experience of the tragedy, is so powerful and pivotal at times like this. I believe that music can express so much more than words, especially through lyrics and melody. Pink Floyd should be taken as an example for others’ musicians, especially those in America, which haven’t done anything „special” involving Ukraine cause.

Brands on Social Media

It’s not hard to notice that with the progress of social media, we’ve started using them in completely different ways, in comparison to the early beginnings.

So, in that way companies are basing their content on relatability- cause some people like that. I mean I don’t care about what Netflix thinks about Pikachu, I want to know what movies are added next month. Examples:

Is fake news a serious problem in the contemporary world?

I think that fake news is a serious problem. We hear them every single day. They can spread all over the world in a couple of hours or even minutes. In that short amount of time fake news is becoming viral and hard to overcome. That’s way they are so dangerous. Many people can’t tell what is fake and what is real. We don’t realize how great influence fake news has on us. They change our perspectives or force us to believe in their idea of true. We should fight against fake news not treat them blankly. Maybe then they will become less harmful.

What is sustainability?

In the 21 st century for many people it’s important to safe our planet from the dangerous consequences of global warming. One of the ways to ensure it is to change our way of living. That’s when it comes the idea of sustainability. 20 years ago, scientists from Sweden developed definition of sustainability with 4 basic principles: REDUCE - “carbon footprint” - dependance on heavy metals - dependance on synthetic chemicals - destruction of nature By following these 4 rules you will make a major change. Moreover, sustainability most commonly means: maintaining the world we live in.
