Take a Stance - by Valeria Armenta
Take a stance!
What do you do,
When the place that was once green
is now brown and gloom,
the sky that was once clear and bright
is now fogged off with smoke,
glaciers are melting
and sea levels are rising,
summers are hotter
and winters are colder,
droughts are becoming more intense
and storms more severe,
our planet is screaming for help
and we are choosing to ignore it?
Our climate crisis is real
and it is human caused
Greenhouse gases have to be controlled!
We can’t stop or reverse the damage
but we can slow the rate
Take a stance
and make a change
be the change
you want to see
Join forces
and share information
Reduce, reuse, and recycle
Place pressure
and speak up
Urge government to take climate action now
Take a stance!
