Some Future?

With our conditional sunshine,
and smoke-filtered rain,
we alter nature's colours and 
flush our future down the drain.

See our choking oceans
and there's no expanding ice
we harvest shrinking forests
beneath El Nino skies.

Cars, cars and still more cars
designed to feed our yearning
no problems to the planet as 
they are catalytically burning.

The fish are going, tigers too
let's make haste to the moon
for it will be our only refuge
if we don't do something soon.
