A Very Sad Thing For To Say

I did not cause the human population to grow As I do not have any biological children of which I do know But for environmental pollution I too am to blame What we do to our Earth Mother is to all of our shame. Climate change is for real but it doesn't cease to amaze That we live on as usual we do not change our ways We still drive big cars and we still burn coal And carbon emissions seem out of control. The environmental damage around us is not hard to see And the finger of blame is also pointing at me Of the black cloud of smog on the city skyline I cannot say of that the problem is not mine. Since carbon emissions I too help to create And with the onset of climate change have we left it too late To save our own kind from extinction since we are heading that way And that does seem a very sad thing for to say.
