Koala bear tears
Eucalyptus tree downfall
A Greenhouse effect
mint
a green thumb
the green-eyed monster
as sure as God’s green apples
they gave my plan a green light
green around the gills
a green back
jade
teal
village green
golf course - putting green
the hanging of Christmas greens
a sergeant wears his dress greens
why does brass turn green?
turnip greens
lime
moss
green bananas
greenhorns are naive
greenware has not yet been fired
what is the greenhouse effect?
he lost his green card
greengrocers
pine
You should know
I’m not who I am
The one who you see living an everyday life
Being paid for the job he’s doing
Sometimes with pains in his back
Or in his knees
The triumph of stupidity giving him migraine headaches
He who reads the papers and hears the news
And drinks with his friends or alone
And smokes an old pipe secretly so his wife doesn’t know
He who worries about the lives of kids
And struggles to write the unwritten
I am a man who makes his life far from here
Who explores unknown places in the earth
Who nips in the bud monstrous hurricanes
Who holds a tight leash on flooding rivers and spins energy
To light up the night
Who reveals through the cosmos the history of creation
Who helps find the names for new stars
Who takes protons apart like shelling walnuts
Entering through quarks
To get at matter’s secrets
Who can make the dumb speak and deaf hear
Tuning in to the world’s cacophony
Who appears in the path of barbarian hordes
And crushes them
Who destroys wild dictators
The minute they step away from their thrones
And people wake up smiling
Who finds the roots of medicines for each disease
Who undoes the greenhouse effect
Saving the world from global warming
And in the evening
After conducting a giant orchestra
And a chorus of a million children in the Sahara desert
That he has caused to blossom with olive trees and oranges
Returns to his home
To lie only a little bit tired
Near the quiet breathing of his beloved wife.
Mother earth gently moans the greenhouse effect
From unhealthy car fumes floating through the air
That’s causing devastation to our climate
Back to back hurricanes and tornadoes reek
Habit, causing devastation to our cities
And states, leaving death and destruction all over
It has caused irreversible damage to
Most of us don’t seem to care at all now, sad
Mothers earth gently moans the failure of crops
That’s mean to feed billions, the climate change with
With the excessive heat is destroying our crops
Causing our farmers to produce less food each year
Dry conditions or an overflow of rain
Mother earth gently moans water pollution
It’s killing all of our marine life and
Over fishing is seen way to often, an
Even the coral reef is vanishing quick
Trash and toxins over run our rivers and
Streams because of big tech companies who cares
About making a dollar, while the toxins
Poison our fish and the people who eat them
Factories pollute the air until its not
Safe to breath, it puts the quality in the
Red zone, it’s like a blanket of fog that sits
Mother earth gently moans, the lost of forests
Where most of the trees is cut down for the sake
Of progress, leaving the poor animals with
No place to go, homeless with no end insight
Taking away their food supply and forcing them
To move closer to the human population
In order to find food, this puts humans in
Danger zone and causes conflict to
Mother earth gently moans, to see the planet
Slowly sinking into non-existence, she’s
Suppose to be love, cared for and protected
Most of all she hasn’t been nurtured either
This is part of why mother earth moans gently

Please be an eco-friend
To make the earth livable
For the next generations.
Please reduce greenhouse effect
To show our children
We really do care.
Please don’t go for only money
Love the people as much as you can
So that they love you.
Please think deeply
Whatever I said
Before it’s too late.
In 100 years Mars will be an Earth-like clone
with a thick breathable, transformed atmosphere, rich in oxygen.
There will be clouds in the sky,
rain will fall again and the rivers will run.
Billions of years ago,
Earth had virtually no oxygen in its atmosphere.
No human could survive here.
The atmosphere was choking; rich in carbon dioxide.
Humble plants changed all that.
For plants consume carbon dioxide
using sunlight to make sugar,
releasing oxygen as a waste product.
In time, with all this pollution,
the oxygen levels rose, to today's 20 percent.
Creating the atmosphere this sustains
respiring animals like us.
In 100 years this will happen again on Mars
which will be terra-formed to be Earth-like and habitable.
Ironically, over 100 years,
humans learned much from the uncontrolled
greenhouse effect that destroyed Earth's climate
making it uninhabitable.
Humans were too selfish to stop this process
until it was too late and irreversible.
Conservation was dumped forever, as a concept,
because it threatened human survival.
Releasing carbon dioxide and water frozen in the Martian soil
will see the atmosphere thicken and get warmer
Plants will be engineered to survive on a new Mars,
to consume the carbon dioxide and make it rich in oxygen.
Mars will become green again, the rivers will flow.
Mars will get warmer, inhabitable and livable.
A new home for humans, freed from their spacesuits,
by a plant-driven transformation.
Mars terra-formed,
reborn, rejigged and renamed as Earth II.
As I land,
You hold my hand
As I fall,
You stand me tall
You opened my eyes
Removed my icecap of blindness
To expose my inner core
And showed me that I’m worth so much more
As I bend,
You mould
As I cry,
You show me the how and the why
About the apeman
That added one plus one
As I live and breathe, I evolved
His greatest gift to the world, is love
As I play,
You knelt to pray
As I itch,
You took a stick to teach
As I scratch my head in class
You stretch my mind like hot glass
The mystery of the life was made clear
A seed of knowledge planted where there was only fear
As I raise my hand to reach
You enrich,
As I reflect on your impact
You’re my retrospect
We waste as the greenhouse effect
We burn in crude oil as dinosaurs went extinct
And as mining coal is our goal
We mirror smoke and turmoil
Thank you,
Mnr. Hilary Ramokgopa
Continental Shelf with its Continental Slope
If the Antarctic Ice Shelf melts
Continental Shelf gloats.
If its near flat land, it will gain on thee
As it extends its flow, we will never gain you see
Our seas will rise, as the ocean floors deepen
This heavenly land will become its seeking.
With the flood plains finally left on the shelf
Our mountains will become, small hill like elf's
Not so giant as in their day
Many will look like Tor's, in many a Bay.
If Global warming, is its result
Our Populi need to stand up and shout
If not for us, but our Children's generation
The powers that be, have to stand to attention.
Solar Variation, Greenhouse Effect
Two processes, Governments have to reflect
Carbon emission's, Ozone layer
Were probably all at fault, not earthly players.
One day we may look back, and wonder why
Too ignorant too talk, or just too shy
But will we have the guts
To look our planet in the eye.
The mean temperature for January two thousand and six (thus far)
noticeably above the norm for this time of year
prognosticators foretell various forecasts per this third planet from the star
which inhabitants upon Mother Earth burden of responsibility must bear
billions of people wanton pollutants ratchet up barometric millibar
dialing up greenhouse effect, which serious scenario scientists fear
correlation from profligate offal ways traced from freed genie in the jar
no longer stretch of imagination affects mankind did sear
since day of reckoning whence Prometheus set stage for war
pitting mankind against Gaia messages we fail to hear.
The asphalt buries
human errors adjutant
of greenhouse effect...
Looking back in retrospect
Previous owners were circumspect
Not meaning harsh disrespect
But years of neglect
And upkeep gone unchecked
Amount much to the domino effect
Our new architect
With his cryptic dialect
And superior intellect
Presents his bold new project
Structural troubles to correct
Existing building to protect
Proud addition to erect
For youthfulness to inject
Pride and strength to resurrect
And combat the greenhouse effect
The costs both direct and indirect
There for us to dissect and inspect
Several naysayers to deflect
Since from all we’ll have to collect
Because we know some will object
To grand illusions of prospect
Garnered benefits to expect
And resurgence of self-respect
To create a positive ripple effect

It's a day for taking a pledge
That we wo'nt litter earth with garbage
It's a day to introspect
About grim fact of greenhouse effect
An occasion of contrition for ozone erosion
A time for nonbiodegradable material to shun
And an event to declare on oath
That instead of incurring Nature's wrath
We'll opt for sustainable induswtrial growth
In post AIDS scenario
It's an occasion to explicitly state
The importance of disposal of medical waste
It's a time to warn eco-hostile industries,
who,by emitting toxic gases
From atmosphere oxygen slashes
Above all it's a carnival for planting trees
For suffusing with oxygen the morning breeze

Everyone's quarantined, I'm out of Thorazine
Stuck in the house, me and my spouse
When we woke up today, no lights on Broadway
It was shut down, my New York town
Stores out of toilet paper, stuck in a skyscraper
For fifteen days, stay six feet away
Cat five hurricanes, I'm wrapped in cellophane
My poor brain, climate change
Wildfires and earthquakes, HE's saying pump the brakes
Greenhouse effect, did you forget
In a few hundred years, destroyed the land of HIS
We abused it, face the music
Two weeks no pollution, its just been proven
The sky is clear, in this leap year
Living off the land, helping your fellow man
The way it should be, hoarding's so ugly
Everyone come together, be a good neighbor
It's not about you, this; the preview
Modern day test of time, not about your mighty dime
COVID-Nineteen, pray for a vaccine!
