I have a dream to get *140 Hit Songs for the Planet* on the charts. That's one hit song for every 1000 endangered species that need our help. It's huge -- but
I have a dream to get *140 Hit / Love Songs for the Planet* written, recorded and on the charts. So, I am working with other musicians to co-write and record a bunch of environmental songs. That's one hit song for every 1000 endangered species that I want to help save from extinction. It's the least I can try to do for the 140,000 endangered species that may go extinct this year. However, to make *140 Hit Songs for the Planet* a reality, we need the help of hundreds (or thousands) of talented musicians and producers worldwide. Therefore, I also want to use VoxErth and *140 Hit Songs for the Planet* to inspire musicians around the world to get rolling on their own environmental songs too. If you think we need *140 Love Songs for the Planet* too, please consider sponsoring one of the eco songs I am working on, or sponsor the VoxErth project itself. If you sponsor a specific song, I will give you a percentage of the song's copyright and a certificate of co-ownership in your name, or in the name of your choice if it is a gift. You will also get a happier planet with your song too -- of course. Your copyright percentage depends on how much you contribute. Contact me to sponsor a song and I can send you the lyrics or a sound-file of some of the eco tunes I am working on. Or, check out this VoxErth.net blog and sponsor one of these songs, or, suggest a song relating to an environmental concern you have or a favorite eco solution. For all the life, Stele XOEarth.org 72O.34O.8O8O

Story behind the song
US clothes dryers use about 1,000 kilowatt hours of electricity a year per household. That’s about 10% of the 11,000 kilowatt hours of electricity used per year by most households. Therefore, if we all start using clotheslines, it will be like turning off about 10% of the power plants that are needed to produce energy for US households.
