We’ve got to pause and ask ourselves: How much clean air do we need?
Lee Iacocca
Clean Air
exhausting every breath, I
climb every green tree, sigh.
should i have to pay a great price
to find pure air of paradise?
lingering under canopy -
a water bucket balcony.
breezy rainforest’s rather nice
to find the pure air of paradise.
cut car engines, open the door,
with tire-less legs instead of four,
for it’s sweet time we sacrifice,
to find the pure air of paradise.
do we expend much, in protest,
of the oxygen, we are blest?
you might ask, “how much should suffice?”
…to find the pure air of paradise!
don’t waste, nor hold, nor hush nor scold.
let your encouragement be bold.
clean, verdant, breathtaking, precise -
to find the pure air of paradise.

Quote: We've got to pause & ask ourselves, how much clean air do we need? By: Lee Iacocca
Before local air pollution control boards our skies were filled with dense smoke
“Imagine hanging your white sheets outside to dry and coming home to find them covered in soot,”
Rules and regulations arrived along with the awareness that we need clean air
in order to live
Before public education on clean air there were no experts to tell it like it is
Today we have the undeniable fact that we were killing our planet and our lungs.
Since the arrival of Covid we are more aware than ever of how our air, can make us or break us.
Go green and breathe clean they say. Who's responsibility is it anyway, the factories, the industries of progress, ...us ?
"Clean air isn't exactly found at the local five and dime store.
Do you part to stop pollution and join CASANZ.
They believe in healthy air for all.
If you value your lungs and breath then, don't stall.
