Extending the Life of the Planet: Yes We Can!

Helped by science, we’ve reduced the dangerous ozone hole;
Countries are, with foresight, turning down their coal;

there are otters, fish and wildfowl in rivers once deemed dead;

we’re more concerned when species’ lives hang dangling on a thread.

So with some careful measures and a will to rearrange,

we can stop the planet heading for a dangerous climate change;

and each of us can contribute by thinking day-by-day

of switching off, recycling waste and throwing less away.
