We Start To Fear

The earth is warming year on year. Our reckless ways must take the blame. Catastrophe is getting near. Now backlash we begin to fear, but still we won't admit our shame. The earth is warming year on year. The carbon problem is quite clear yet we go on with risky game. Catastrophe is getting near. The issues won't just disappear. Our best intentions now look lame. The earth is warming year on year. The outlook now is more severe. Still we continue just the same. Catastrophe is getting near, so new direction we must steer. Ban fossil fuels should be our aim. The earth is warming year on year. Catastrophe is getting near.

A good idea penned. I hope that things will get better in the future for our planet. I wonder though if it is just a cycle that our planet goes through so many warm years then so many cold years. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

I reckon the earth is still warming up after the last ice age. But the rate of warming took a big leap when modern man started to burn the fossil carbon. And now with 'global dimming' we may be heading for colder years. Perhaps, just another cycle. The pendulum swings. Tony

And yet many don't take it seriously, mankind will cause his own destruction for sure, hope I'm not around to see it. Tom
