Solutions For Pollution

Published by Family Friend Poems April 2022 with permission of the Author.

Is it too much to ask for a pollution free world?
The condition of the environment leaves us appalled.

Can we call this progress if life comes to a halt?
We are responsible for pollution; it is our fault.

Oceans are poisoned by spilling of oil,
Pesticides are contaminating Earth's soil.

It's a pity not to see a clear blue sky
As air pollution is alarmingly high,

Global temperature is rising, glaciers are melting down.
Inaction by us will let cities drown.

It is not that we don't have any solution
To tackle and control this ongoing pollution -

Reduce plastic use, stop deforestation,
Plant trees for clean air and soil restoration,

Factories should stop draining waste to the sea,
Then marine life will improve naturally,

Composting can make the soil fertile
And we should not let debris pile,

And by the process of recycling and reuse,
We can stop our Earth's further abuse.
