Climate Change


Climate Change Is Real

 

This beautiful, big vast blue planet

These fish swimming in fresh, cool water

The birds nesting in lush green forests

The animals frolicking in the vast grasslands

Earths going to stay like this forever. Right

 

NO

No, its isn’t

 

How happy are humans, their indirect impacts!

I cannot help but stop and look at this yellow warning.

Are you upset by how cowardly it is?

Does it tear you apart to see the warming so yellow-bellied?

 

I saw the woolly element of my generation destroyed, (Koalas)

How I mourn the loss of the green.

Down, down, down into the darkness of human nature,

As I grow I learn more

How one day it will destroy us

And How one day nature will take its revenge

 

My mother got to see the white tigers

My brother saw the Spix Macaw

And what I saw,

I saw the koalas burning

I saw the East Africa hunger crisis

 

The worlds getting destroyed and we have nothing and nowhere to go

Are you happy with this? 

Do you want to stay like this?

Let us make a change today and tomorrow

Let us not forget this when we go home

Let Us Fight For this cause

Let us Make A change TODAY and Tomorrow
