I ask you what’s gone wrong

Do you not like the greens, the honeybees, the clean sea?

Plastic bags, piles of rags, methane killing lives

Is that what you like?

The ecosystem is lost, please protect it at any cost. 

The Ganges is now black, filled with dirt and debris.

Factory waste strives, killing entire marine life.

Our future seems waste

Garbage all around, in alarming rate.

We will win when we learn to put our tins in the right bin.

If you can’t plant trees, stop cutting them down for your own means.

Reduce waste,

Reuse the old,

Recycling is the way to go.
