deforestation
There, where it has led us,
Deforestation,
Such high temperatures,
That you can die in your own house,
Temperatures, so high,
May the rivers of Africa perish,
There, where it has led us,
Cities that are thirsty,
Endangered elephants,
An overpopulated world,
Slowly warming oceans,
who cover themselves with jellyfish,
That’s where it got us,
Forests that are fading,
All the scourges of ancient Egypt,
At the gates of Europe,
The pink flamingos soon on the Seine,
The deserts will they replace the arboreal plains,
Will the planet survive?
