Who recalls Chernobyl now?
New spills, new meltdowns, new extinctions.
I was in the Oil Wars, though.
Can you believe they put lead in petrol once?
We stopped all that and fixed the ozone hole
by banning CFC’s...
These badges? Well,
this one’s Kyoto Hi! Some fights we lost,
just hot air and Dubya moaning at the cost.
Got this nuclear power nein danke
in Berlin the year the Wall came down.
This one’s Stop the bloody whaling. Remember
those inflatables banging through the spray
to put themselves between the harpoons
and the whales?
Yes, I see the badges on your bag. And no,
I’ve no idea what mine might fetch on e-bay.
The whales have lingered on,
pollution hasn’t fouled everything,
there are a billion more of us,
and thanks to hydrocarbons,
sunsets take your breath away.
It’s believers who need hell the most,
a place for folk like you to go.
I hope global warming sees you roast.
