Ploughing a furrow of self destruction

we are ploughing a furrow of our own destruction

Sowing the seeds of human extinction

Overpopulation and exploiting resources

We are running out of time and there’s to many discourses

It’s time to stop talking and a time for action

Time to make a change and to bring about renewable energies

Time to go green and for humanity to come clean

We need to save and replenish our environment

And the biggest way to do this is controlling how we breed

Along with stopping pollution and cutting down trees

But humanities growth and it’s inexhaustible greed

Should make this our number one priority.

  1. “And the biggest way to do this is controlling how we breed”…..I find this sentence to be of great interest especially since it follows, “We need to save and replenish our environment” Isn’t the fact that we do copulate a huge part of, in fact, the biggest part of, replenishing our environment and therefore providing the one thing that can save it…..human beings? The secret here is in teaching those that follow us, our children, to do better than we have done, to respect the land and the water, to use things wisely, to reuse just as wisely, and to replace trifold what they have taken from this earth. Our number one priority should be learning how to stop the pollution, how to control the greed, how to invent renewable sources for heat, energy, and growing food. Then, the real answer to everything, pass this on, making sure our children learn the lessons that have been so difficult for so many of our latest generations to understand, “GIVE BACK.’ Give back everything and to teach their children as we have been teaching them.
    Thank you for the chance to reply. I love your writing but haven’t been around for a while. I have found this post to be very stimulating.
