Relisting per Articles for deletion/List of songs about weather. Bulldog123 21:54, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong delete, fairly obvious WP:NOT case. Far too loosely associated -- some of these songs are obviously about the environment, but others aren't so obvious ("Seminole Wind", anyone?). Ten Pound Hammer  • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 22:09, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as per TenPound. "Highway to Hell" is about the environment?  Why, because he's driving over the limit and adding to carbon emissions?  AC/DC was green all along.  Inaccurate 0-9ABC list. Mandsford 00:18, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - per both of the above. --Haemo 02:42, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Re-evaluate if salvagable, but likely Delete. I can understand the idea of having a category for songs on a topic, and someone INTENDED for entries to be about environmental issues, but it's looking more like a catch-all than anything else.  It may be salvagable, but that'd involve going through and removing the songs that don't belong--Tom Lehrer's 'Pollution' is obviously applicable, but Rush's 'Subdivisions'?  That's a song about alienation in modern society.  And 'environmental issues' may or may not be an overly broad mandate, poor interpretation of prior editors notwithstanding ...

 * Userfy to User:MrFizyx/songs/List of songs about the environment. I'll look into cleaning this up later.  Ecology is an important topic for topical songs.  There is an entire chapter devoted to it in Rise Up Singing.  Surely there is a more-useful article to be made (with sources even). -MrFizyx 07:11, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
