“The climate crisis is an everything crisis, and more and more we are seeing these negative impacts on our industry,” MSA CEO Amy Morrison said in a statement. “And the music industry is uniquely positioned to utilize its power to inform and inspire audiences about the challenges and opportunities we all face. By sharing best practices, expert perspectives, tools for responses, and general knowledge on directions we’re headed, MSS 25 provides a unique platform to affect real change.”
