For your holiday enjoyment… here are some alternative lyrics to Irving Berlin’s classic tune, “I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas,” penned and sung by Defenders’ own Scotty Johnson.

The video below also features some of the beautiful photos entered in this year’s Defenders of Wildlife Photo Contest – we hope you enjoy them, and this song, as much as we do!

I’m Dreaming of a Green Planet
To the tune of “I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas”

I’m Dreaming of a Green Planet.  Just like the one I used to know.
Where the streams are flowing and the coral’s growing
In oceans that still have some fish

I’m dreaming of a Green planet, with every Prius that I drive
Arctic winters, the Polar Bear Alive! And with temperatures below 125.

I’m dreaming of a Green Planet.   Just like the one I used to have.
Where the birds are singing and seasons bringing
A place for every living thing

I’m dreaming of a Green Planet with every Congressman I write
For the future it’s time we start to dream
Of a planet healthy and green.
