CLIMERICK: Greenkeepers and Golfers Hear Tell by Trevor Thorn

 KEEPING CLIMATE CONCERN



St Cuthbert’s Island, off Lindisfarne, Northumbria.
An islet under threat from rising sea levels. The islet
has been adopted by Eco-Verses as
a symbol of the global risk to low-lying places.


Greenkeepers and golfers hear tell,

you must expect fairways from hell,

through curbs on your water

should governments falter.

in planning to save earth’s deep wells.


We are draining ancient aquifers much too fast and this will inevitably lead to crises and the need to prioritise the use of water in many countries. So this is a prompt to those who have non-essential vested interests in water supplies being maintained, to pressure their friends and acquaintances in governments to make realistic future plans to preserve much more of easily accessed current water supplies
