There are green spaces clearly worth saving
But from they're edges we're shaving
New homes, shopping malls
As consumer demand calls
More more more! They're just ripe for the paving
The challenges of working together
Are facing us now more than ever.
But creative ideas
Are drowning out sneers.
We can act just like birds of a feather.
If economic growth is our goal
We throw all the trees in a hole.
Carbon sequestration
To support procreation
A sustainable world... for a mole.
