We live in plastic days
Where everything’s thrown away
Dumped in ditches and laybys
Even though it’s an environmental crime
And though some recycle its all waste
If others decide not to live this way
And so there’s plastic polluting seas
It’s in so many things we eat
In micro sized form
Why has this become our norm
As ab intelligent species
Surely we find a way to go plastic free
Surely there is so little need
We grew ul without during the 60’s and 70’s
I think its because we are lazy
And because of corporate greed
It’s all sadly about the money
Plastic has become a global environmental disease
Brought about by our humanity
And we need to change how we live and try to retrieve
The damage we’ve done to everything
And nothing else should matter
Than the fact we’re leaving this world in tatters.
