the Initiator
The melody for the Climate Bells comes from the Berlin composer Klaus Wüsthoff (born 1922). After meeting Prof. Dr. Dr. Schellnhuber Wüsthoff became aware of his worries for the future generations and developed from the Leitmotiv of his orchestral work ‘Die Regentrude‘ the Climate Bells Melody – an impressive artistic contribution to one of the most urgent issues of the present day.
