Global warming calls for climate control:
Earth's glaciers are quickly melting away,
while most nations haven't met their carbon goal.
Though the damage done could have been undone,
Big business wasn't willing to pay the price
going green: would levy on everyone.
It's too late, climate change is here to stay,
and that's not up for debate, it's here now:
wreaking havoc, despite what skeptics say.
And though it's difficult to be precise;
low-lying lands are feeling its effects,
as oceans rise and glaciers shed their ice.
Failing to realize we're connected,
Man's stewardship of Earth was neglected.
