A challenge, facing all our world,
    Is in our hands today.
Climatic changes are the signs -
    Already underway. 

​

Our planet’s heating up at speed.
    This problem must be faced 
And much that’s at the root of this
     Is caused by human waste.

​

Greenhouse gases, caused by waste,
    Are sent up through the air.
It’s not just things that we chuck out
   But vehicles – please beware!!

​

Our seas and rivers, full of pain, 
     Cry out, in deep despair.
The creatures living in their world
     Are dying.  Is this fair?

​

Young people – you’ll be suffering
     In years that lie ahead,
So, when you buy the things you use,
     Remember what I’ve said.
