Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke has called for the Antarctic to stay “raw and wild” as he released a new track in collaboration with Greenpeace. Hands Off The Antarctic, a haunting, four-minute-long instrumental, was released today in support of the environmental organisation’s campaign for an Antarctic Ocean Sanctuary five times the size of Germany. Yorke, 50, said the electronic thud of the track represented the “relentless march” of humanity’s “footprint” on the Antarctic. He said: “There are some places on this planet that are meant to stay raw and wild and not destroyed by humanity’s footprint.
