Think Green On Earth Day

I spent a great party of my early life loving ecology, living close to nature and environmentally conscious. But I was consumed by society, everything I used had some animal derivative or plant stripping that I wouldn’t normally have supported. It’s not so easy being green. I know now that we can only help by individuals reducing the level of their carbon footprint if they are to make a difference. The fact is the more we progress the more advance is the technology that we use, this computer for instance, and so the larger is the carbon footprint that we use. I’ll give up eating meat before I give up using my computer, but which is worst?

 

Think Green On Earth Day

Times have changed us, people want more

Houses are bigger and demands more than before

It’s not so easy being green

No one really prefers dirty to clean

Keeping constant checks on how we live though

Gets us all frustrated and we prefer not to know

Registering large Carbon footprints and eating meat

Ecologically strip Mother Nature and in time defeat

Essential balances of animal and plant

Nature once destroyed then people can’t

Overcome the rigors of Sun and Wind

No matter what we end up doing

Every country would become just dust and sand

A dessert would cover all earth’s land

Rivers now dried and lakes we knew

Turned into shale rock as they become subdue

How all this could change if only we would be

Doing things more suited to ecology

Aware that a balance of animals and plants must exist

You have to think green and learn to resist
