Degradation of Environment

He sat on a wooden chair In front of him was a wooden table On it was placed some paper a bottle of packaged drinking water Some disposable glasses He had invited people attend his lecture on degradation of environment So many people talking about it No one doing anything... And I am not ashamed to admit I am one of them. Worst part is I am criticising him.

I do agree that words are cheap when they are not back up with action. Nicely written piece dear poet. Thank you for sharing.

It is all rather laughable, isn't it?! Others give lectures on 'carbon imprint,' driving up in their Hummers... You know, the environment is ours to use, though not to abuse. Some will cut down trees; others will plant them... Enjoy it all! :) gw

I find it very funny - Hypocrisy when I wrote I reflected what am I doing? What is the difference between that person and me? So last para. We don't want words, but actions. Enjoy your day
