The Earth’s future is in our hands,
If we don’t protect it, this is where it’ll land.
The rivers and oceans we know so well,
Will now flow dirty as though under a wicked spell.
This is Global Warming, here it comes,
When animal babies stick to their mums.
The waves will crash with little glow,
As they won’t see a need to really flow.
It’s all our fault, but we already know that,
So save our Earth, don’t crush it flat.
The Earth is our home but not our mother,
We must care for it not just the other.
We treat it like an equal, a sister or brother,
We can control plastic that affects the weather.
Please listen and say “I agree”,
Don’t ignore or say “Why should we?”
So clear up plastic, clean up waste,
Do it with purpose, and not just haste.
Let’s save the Earth to set things right,
Your only job is to join this fight.
