In 2024 for this podcast, James Gordon, spoke in depth about his insightful 2020 album and project, Emergency Climate Musical. A long-time environmentalist, social commentator and concerned man of action, James Gordon continues to record and release important messages through great folk songs.

James Gordon’s Emergency Climate Musical – His one-man show is a ninety-minute theatrical investigation of what surely is THE issue in these uncertain times. Filled with compelling songs, videos, images, stories, rants, laughter, tears, audience participation, a creepy puppet and some concrete ways to face this crisis, James promises to entertain, inform, and leave you with homework.
Follow along as he outlines his premise that we need a total political, societal and economic make-over to face the incredible challenge ahead.
He’s got the cred for the job: James moonlit as a Guelph City Councilor for 8 years, where he introduced climate change motions, and he’s a member of the National Climate Leadership Caucus.

Released February 1, 2020. Produced by Evan and James Gordon – with 9 tracks used by permission from Borealis Records, where the songs were first released.
