YANGAROO Joins Independent Artist Ronny Morris in Spreading His
Video and Message Worldwide, Declaring the Arctic a Global
Sanctuary
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Apr 22, 2014) - As today marks
the celebration of Earth Day around the globe, YANGAROO
(TSX-VENTURE:YOO)(OTCBB:YOOIF), the industry's leading secure
digital media management and distribution company, is proud to
announce its partnership with award winning singer/songwriter Ronny
Morris who has created an international campaign to rally global
support for the Save the Arctic Campaign launched by Greenpeace.
Mr. Morris has created a music video for his song "Built to Last"
in seven languages and donated all proceeds from the song sales to
this Greenpeace initiative. Especially on the heels of the latest
United Nations report on ways to reduce CO2 emissions on April 7th,
YANGAROO is honored to be the official online distributor of Mr.
Morris's multilingual versions of his music video in order to help
spread the word about the importance and urgency about protecting
the Arctic from melting.
The song "Built to Last" which includes the release of three
music videos and eight remixes by artists like Rich Morel (P!nk,
Depeche Mode, The Killers), Ganga and Leon El Ray, was released via
Spotify and all digital retailers on April 7, 2014. Ronny Morris
has also teamed up with Greenpeace and Spotify on the release of
this charity single where all revenue will go to the support of the
Save The Arctic movement, which includes prominent names such as
Radiohead, Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Richard Branson, and Chris
Martin from Coldplay, supporting over 5 million people worldwide
who have already signed the petition on SavetheArctic.org.
"We are happy to support this worthy cause," said Cliff Hunt,
Vice Chairman and COO, YANGAROO Inc. "Global warming is a reality
and we are seeing the effects every day and we are glad to be able
to help in some small way."
Ronny Morris, who is an avid proponent of Greenpeace, is
thrilled that YANGAROO is also supporting his efforts in addressing
this global issue. "The Arctic is melting faster than anyone could
predict. Due to climate change an entire region is under threat. I
hope this campaign will help open people's eyes to the great danger
we are in. Hopefully, some will even join the movement to protect
the Arctic," says Ronny Morris. "Being that the U.N. Secretary
General has recently traveled to Greenland to inspect the
consequences of global warming should definitely raise concern for
everyone."
The Save the Arctic campaign works for a ban on offshore oil
drilling in the Arctic region, a stop on unregulated and
destructive fisheries in the Arctic and a global sanctuary on the
uninhabited area around the North Pole.
Ronny Morris's music has been featured in award winning films
and major American TV shows such as One Tree Hill, Brothers Sisters
and Ghost Whisperer and was recently honored with two HMMA awards.
Remixes of his songs are available on more than sixteen compilation
CDs sold in 52 countries worldwide, including the world renowned
Buddha Bar Compilation.
