Do Nowt Till Later Date

Earth’s future is at stake
So meet at Sharm-el-Sheikh,
Where details we debate
About warming climate.
Vague promises some make
On action they may take
Some time at later date
To control climate fate.
Past agreements some break
And their figures seem fake.
So much for world debate.
Do nowt till later date.

Everyone sees it as someone else's problem but the clock is ticking. Even if they acted NOW I wonder would it be enough. Tom

Thanks Tom. We walk on edge of cliff / that now is unstable. / Some of us ask 'what if'. / Too late, the ground crumble./ Tony
