Bob Dylan is to donate his song Shelter from the Storm to the environmental charity WWF for their use in TV advertisements.

The singer songwriter has donated tracks and time to charities before. He was one of the performers at George Harrison’s Concert For Bangladesh in 1971, one of the first major rock concerts organised by a musician to raise funds for a humanitarian emergency cause.
