BLACKPINK address climate change for ‘Dear Earth’: “We have to be more aware of this environmental crisis”

BLACKPINK recently appeared on the YouTube Originals special Dear Earth to address climate change, telling viewers “we have to be more aware of this environmental crisis”.

The K-pop outfit were among the guests who participated in the special, which aired last Saturday (October 23). Members Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa each spoke about the urgency of the climate crisis, with the latter saying, “The way things are going, there may be no planet left to save.”

“Our generation has to come together,” added Rosé. “We must unite and work towards this collective goal of saving the earth.”
