The public interest in climate change
Is most commendable in its intentions,
In giving us a slim survival chance,
And certain hopes for future generations.
Yet, people do not think of dying soils,
Of drinking water that is getting sparser.
That'll trouble us long before the planet boils,
Before we find a living place on marses.
The only way to face the coming age
Is to reduce and circumvent consumption:
For waste and carelessness, the nature will revenge
Much worse than the UN with any sanctions.
Consume what's really needed, no excess,
Avoid the false directions to progress.
