Earth Day 2021

For what it’s worth, this day’s for earth And ways we can protect it, For all the harm we humans do Is proof we don’t respect it. The litter that we fritter Often ends up in the ocean Killing those who live below to set Diminishment in motion. And global warming is transforming Habitats with features That melt or disappear, thus harming All the native creatures. It’s time to act because, in fact, The future’s looking frightful. The world for our descendants May be, sadly, less delightful.
