Global Warming and Other Problems

Global warming is an important thing,
So why do we all just play and sing?
We all sit around and and say we must stop it,
But do we really do anything about it?
Long ago, when our parents were young,
There was so much of greenery, and so much of fun!
But now in this generation, as a kid,
Why do I have to miss out on what my parents did?

When we see a hunter killing a bear,
Why do we all just stand and stare?
The tiger is the national animal in India here,
So why are we letting them disappear
Also disappearing are pandas, white and black,
And once they’re extinct, we can’t get them back!

We all say that we do care,
But all we do is stand and stare!
We all are making the oceans die,
But do we have any right to make the sealife cry?
Why don't we really ever learn,
That the forests are important and we shouldn’t let them burn?
God gave us humans this gift of control, comfort, and bliss,
So why are we spoiling his earth like this?

We all sit around and say we must stop it,
But we don’t really do anything about it!
We all say that we do care,
But all we do is stand and stare!
We all just write poems like this,
And then continue to live in perfect bliss!
