Bear

**Bears** are carnivoran mammals of the family **Ursidae**. They are classified as caniforms, or doglike carnivorans. Although only eight species of bears are extant, they are widespread, appearing in a wide variety of habitats throughout the Northern Hemisphere and partially in the Southern Hemisphere. Bears are found on the continents of North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. Common characteristics of modern bears include large bodies with stocky legs, long snouts, small rounded ears, shaggy hair, plantigrade paws with five nonretractile claws, and short tails.

While the polar bear is mostly carnivorous, and the giant panda feeds almost entirely on bamboo, the remaining six species are omnivorous with varied diets. With the exception of courting individuals and mothers with their young, bears are typically solitary animals. They may be diurnal or nocturnal and have an excellent sense of smell. Despite their heavy build and awkward gait, they are adept runners, climbers, and swimmers. Bears use shelters, such as caves and logs, as their dens; most species occupy their dens during the winter for a long period of hibernation, up to 100 days.

Bears have been hunted since prehistoric times for their meat and fur; they have been used for bear-baiting and other forms of entertainment, such as being made to dance. With their powerful physical presence, they play a prominent role in the arts, mythology, and other cultural aspects of various human societies. In modern times, bears have come under pressure through encroachment on their habitats and illegal trade in bear parts, including the Asian bile bear market. The IUCN lists six bear species as vulnerable or endangered, and even least concern species, such as the brown bear, are at risk of extirpation in certain countries. The poaching and international trade of these most threatened populations are prohibited, but still ongoing.

Known for the study of jazz and modern American music, it also offers college-level courses in a wide range of contemporary and historic styles, including rock, hip hop, reggae, salsa, heavy metal and bluegrass.

## Lyrics

Clean rain, crystal clean rain

Sing it clean rain

Oh I remember the days when the rain fell clean

Into the valleys and into the streams

Clean through the air and clean to the earth

They say that the rain fell clean

Rain on the land and rain in the water

Clean fell the rain from the skies above

The rain brought life, life in every drop

The rain that we used to know

Clean rain, crystal clean rain

Sing it clean rain

Clean rain, crystal clean rain

Sing it clean rain

Oh I remember the days when the rain fell clean

Into the valleys and into the streams

Clean through the air and clean to the earth

They say that the rain fell clean

There’s life in the woods and life in our waters

Moving in the beauty of this earth that we love

And praying for the day when the rain falls clean

Like the rain we used to know

Clean rain, crystal clean rain

Sing it clean rain

Clean rain, crystal clean rain

Sing it clean rain

Clean rain, crystal clean rain

Sing it clean rain

Clean rain, crystal clean rain

Sing it clean rain

## Lyrics

Blue white planet spinning in space

Our home sweet home

Blue white planet spinning in space

Our home sweet home

Home for the children you and me

Home for the little ones yet to be

Home for the creatures large and small

Blue white planet, blue white planet

Blue white planet spinning in space

Our home sweet home

Blue white planet spinning in space

Our home sweet home

Home for the skies and the seven seas

Home for the towns and the farmers's fields

Home for the trees and the air we breathe

Blue white planet, blue white planet

If we keep her in our care, if we all give back our share

There'll be music everywhere on our blue white planet,

And if a rocket ship on day takes us very far away,

We'll look back and smile and say

"That's our planet!"

Blue white planet spinning in space

Our home sweet home

Blue white planet spinning in space

Our home sweet home

Home for the children you and me

Home for the little ones yet to be

Blue white planet spinning in space

Our home sweet home

Blue white planet spinning in space

Our home sweet home

## Lyrics

There's a big beautiful planet in the sky

It's my home, it's where I live

You and many others live here too

The earth is our home it's where we live

We can feel the power of the noon day sun

A blazing ball of fire up above

Shining light and warmth enough for everyone

A gift to every nation from a star

There's a big beautiful planet in the sky

It's my home, it's where I live

You and many others live here too

The earth is our home, it's where we live

We can feel the spirit of the blowing wind

A mighty source of power in our lives

Offering another way to fill our needs

Nature's gift can help us carry on

There's a big beautiful planet in the sky

It's my home, it's where I live

You and many others live here too

The earth is our home, it's where we live

Child Honouring

On Raffi's Raffi Foundation for Child Honouring site, **Child Honouring** is a holistic philosophy involving a children-first approach to healing communities and restoring ecosystems. It views how we regard and treat our young as the key to building a humane and sustainable world; organizing society around the priority needs of its youngest members.

It starts with three givens:

* Reason #1: The primacy of early years -- early childhood is the gateway to humane being.
* Reason #2: We face planetary degradation that is unprecedented in scope and scale -- a state of emergency that most endangers the very young and that requires a remedy of equal scale.
* Reason #3: This crisis calls for a systemic response in detoxifying the environments that make up the ecology of the child.

By putting the universal needs of children first, strategies can be developed to meet our most pressing needs: building community, restoring planetary health, peacemaking, and creating sustainable economies that support the wellbeing of children and families.

Child Honouring is an invitation to imagine and create a diversity of child-friendly cultures. A child-honouring society would show love for its children in every facet of its design and organization.

As an integrated philosophy, Child Honouring allows us to question everything from the way we measure economic progress to our stewardship of the Earth; from our physical treatment of children to the corporate impact on their minds and bodies; from unthinking consumerism to factory schooling. By honouring the child we honour the Earth, as we work toward a sustainable world.

A Covenant for Honouring Children

**A Covenant for Honouring Children** is a speech Raffi wrote in 1999.

## Covenant

We find these joys to be self evident: That all children are created whole, endowed with innate intelligence, with dignity and wonder, worthy of respect. The embodiment of life, liberty and happiness, children are original blessings, here to learn their own song. Every girl and boy is entitled to love, to dream and belong to a loving "village". And to pursue a life of purpose.

We affirm our duty to nourish and nurture the young, to honour their caring ideals as the heart of being human. To recognize the early years as the foundation of life, and to cherish the contribution of young children to human evolution.

We commit ourselves to peaceful ways and vow to keep from harm or neglect these, our most vulnerable citizens. As guardians of their prosperity we honour the bountiful Earth whose diversity sustains us. Thus we pledge our love for generations to come.

C-A-N-A-D-A

**C-A-N-A-D-A** is the eighth track on *Bananaphone*.

## Lyrics

C-A-N-A-D-A

Tell me, what's a Douglas Fur?

C-A-N-A-D-A

Bet you never heard a Bobcat purr

C-A-N-A-D-A

Have you ever seen a Lobster crawl?

In Canada we get to see them all

We get to see the maple trees, maple sugar and the maple leaves

We get the biggest wheat fields growing tall

In C-A-N-A-D-A

Where we see the Reversing Falls

In Canada we get to see them all

C-A-N-A-D-A

Tell me, what's a tidal bore?

C-A-N-A-D-A

Have you ever heard the ocean roar?

C-A-N-A-D-A

Just listen to that wild goose call

In Canada we get to see them all

We get to the maple trees, maple sugar and the maple leaves

We got the biggest Timber Woods so tall

In C-A-N-A-D-A

Where adventure ever calls

In Canada we get to see them all

C-A-N-A-D-A

Have you ever heard a Maple creak?

C-A-N-A-D-A

Bet you never seen a Mountain peak

C-A-N-A-D-A

In the land of the big snowball

In Canada we get to see them all

Well, we get to see the maple trees, maple sugar and the maple leaves

We got the biggest wheat fields growing tall

In C-A-N-A-D-A

Where we see the Reversing Falls

In Canada we get to see them all (Whoo!)

C-A-N-A-D-A

Have you ever seen a magnetic hill?

C-A-N-A-D-A

Or a lady on a Dollar Bill?

C-A-N-A-D-A

Bet you never see the Autumn Fall

In Canada we get to see them all

Well, we get to see the maple trees, maple sugar and the maple leaves

We got the biggest Timber Woods so tall

In C-A-N-A-D-A

Where adventure ever calls

In Canada we get to see them all

I say, in Canada we get to see them all

Galápagos tortoise

The **Galapagos tortoise** complex or **Galapagos giant tortoise** complex are the largest living species of tortoise. Females weigh up to 300 pounds; males weigh up to 573 pounds. Tortoises don't have teeth, so they use the bony outer edges of their mouth to bite off and mash food. Once in the mouth, food is quickly swallowed. They don't have a good sense of smell, so tortoises use their eyes to find food.

There are two types of Galapagos tortoises. The largest, with big, round shells, are called "domes." The tortoises have shells that curl up in front like a saddle and are called "saddlebacks." Galapagos tortoises can retain a great amount of water, which allows them to survive the long dry season on the islands.
Aikendrum

**Aikendrum** is a Raffi song of Singable Songs for the Very Young.

## Lyrics

There was a man lived in the moon

In the moon, in the moon.

There was a man lived in the moon,

And his name was Aikendrum.

And he played upon a ladle,

A ladle, a ladle.

And played upon a ladle,

And his name was Aikendrum.

And his hair was made of spaghetti,

Spaghetti, spaghetti.

His hair was made of spaghetti,

And his name was Aikendrum.

And his eyes were made of meatballs,

Meatballs, meatballs.

His eyes were made of meatballs,

And his name was Aikendrum.

And he played upon a ladle,

A ladle, a ladle.

And he played upon a ladle,

And his name was Aikendrum.

And his nose was made of cheese,

Cheese, cheese.

His nose was made of cheese,

And his name was Aikendrum.

And his mouth was made of pizza,

Pizza, pizza.

His mouth was made of pizza,

And his name was Aikendrum.

And he played upon a ladle,

A ladle, a ladle.

He played upon a ladle,

And his name was Aikendrum.

There was a man lived in the moon,

In the moon, in the moon.

There was a man lived in the moon,

And his name was Aikendrum.

Canada Day

**Canada Day** (French: *Fête du Canada*) is the national day of Canada. A federal statutory holiday, it celebrates the anniversary of Canadian confederation which occurred on July 1, 1867, with the passing of the *Constitution Act, 1867* where the three separate colonies of Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick were united into a single Dominion within the British Empire called Canada.
Dolphin

**Dolphin** is the common name of aquatic mammals within the infraorder Cetacea. The term dolphin usually refers to the extant families Delphinidae (the oceanic dolphins), Platanistidae (the Indian river dolphins), named Iniidae (the New World river dolphins), and Pontoporiidae (the brackish dolphins), and the extinct Lipotidae (baiji or Chinese river dolphin). There are 40 extant species named as dolphins.

Dolphins range in size from the relatively small 1.7-metre-long (5 ft 7 in) long and 50-kilogram (110-pound) bodied Maui's dolphin to the 9.5 m (31 ft 2 in) and 10-tonne (11-short-ton) killer whale. Dolphins can sometimes leap about 30 feet (9.1 m). Several species of dolphins exhibit sexual dimorphism, in that the males are larger than females. They have streamlined bodies and two limbs that are modified into flippers. Though not quite as flexible as seals, some dolphins can travel at speeds 29 kilometres (18 mi) per hour for short distances. Dolphins use their conical shaped teeth to capture fast-moving prey. They have well-developed hearing which is adapted for both air and water and is so well developed that some can survive even if they are blind. Some species are well adapted for diving to great depths. They have a layer of fat, or blubber, under the skin to keep warm in the cold water.

Although dolphins are widespread, most species of them prefer the warmer waters of the tropic zones, but some, like the right whale dolphin, prefer colder climates. Dolphins feed largely on fish and squid, but a few, like the killer whale, feed on large mammals, like seals. Male dolphins typically mate with multiple females every year, but females only mate every two to three years. Calves are typically born in the spring and summer months and females bear all the responsibility for raising them. Mothers of some species fast and nurse their young for a relatively long period of time. Dolphins produce a variety of vocalizations, usually in the form of clicks and whistles.

Dolphins are sometimes hunted in places such as Japan, in an activity known as dolphin drive hunting. Besides drive hunting, they also face threats from bycatch, habitat loss, and marine pollution. Dolphins have been depicted in various cultures worldwide. Dolphins occasionally feature in literature and film, as in the film series *Free Willy*. Dolphins are sometimes kept in captivity and trained to perform tricks. The most common dolphin species in captivity is the bottlenose dolphin, while there are around 60 killer whales in captivity.
Every Little Wish

**Every Little Wish** is a Christmas song on Raffi's Christmas Album.

During the instrumental break, an excerpt of Beethoven's Ode to Joy plays.

## Lyrics

Every little wish and every little dream

Has a chance of coming true at Christmas

Every little song sung throughout the year

Has a chance of being heard at Christmas

Every little prayer and every little hope

Is the joy of Christmas time

All our loving hearts, beating all as one

Everybody felt there's enough to go around

All our loving hearts, beating all as one

The joy of Christmas time

[Brass solo with Ode to Joy interpolation]

Every little wish and every little dream

Has a chance of coming true at Christmas

Every little song sung throughout the year

Has a chance of being heard at Christmas

Every little prayer and every little hope

Is the joy of Christmas time

All our loving hearts, beating all as one

Everybody felt there's enough to go around

All our loving hearts, beating all as one

The joy of Christmas time

Earth Day

**Earth Day** is an annual event on April 22 to demonstrate support for environmental protection. First held on April 22, 1970, it now includes a wide range of events coordinated globally by EarthDay.org (formerly Earth Day Network) including 1 billion people in more than 193 countries.

In 1969 at a UNESCO Conference in San Francisco, peace activist John McConnell proposed a day to honor the Earth and the concept of peace, to first be observed on March 21, 1970, the first day of spring in the northern hemisphere. This day of nature's equipoise was later sanctioned in a proclamation written by McConnell and signed by Secretary General U Thant at the United Nations. A month later, United States Senator Gaylord Nelson proposed the idea to hold a nationwide environmental teach-in on April 22, 1970. He hired a young activist, Denis Hayes, to be the National Coordinator. Nelson and Hayes renamed the event "Earth Day". Denis and his staff grew the event beyond the original idea for a teach-in to include the entire United States. More than 20 million people poured out on the streets, and the first Earth Day remains the largest single-day protest in human history. Key non-environmentally focused partners played major roles. Under the leadership of labor leader Walter Reuther, for example, the United Auto Workers (UAW) was the most instrumental outside financial and operational supporter of the first Earth Day. According to Hayes, "Without the UAW, the first Earth Day would have likely flopped!" Nelson was later awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom award in recognition of his work.

The first Earth Day was focused on the United States. In 1990, Denis Hayes, the original national coordinator in 1970, took it international and organized events in 141 nations. On Earth Day 2016, the landmark Paris Agreement was signed by the United States, the United Kingdom, China, and 120 other countries. This signing satisfied a key requirement for the entry into force of the historic draft climate protection treaty adopted by consensus of the 195 nations present at the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris. Numerous communities engaged in **Earth Day Week actions**, an entire week of activities focused on the environmental issues that the world faces. On Earth Day 2020, over 100 million people around the world observed the 50th anniversary in what is being referred to as the largest online mass mobilization in history.
Dragonfly

**Dragonfly** is a song on Raffi's 2018 children's album: Dog on the Floor.

## Lyrics

Dragonfly, dragonfly

Flying low and flying high

Light as a feather in the sky

Lovely dragonfly

Dragonfly, dragonfly

Swoop so low and swoop so high

Light as a feather flying by

Lovely dragonfly

Wings of beauty, beauty bright

Silky shiny full of light

Quite the sight you are in flight

Lovely dragonfly

Dragonfly, dragonfly

 Flying low and flying high

Light as a feather in the sky

Lovely dragonfly
