Yesterday was apparently one of those random awareness holidays that I both make fun of and celebrate: National Limerick Day. Here are climate limericks I tweeted
This was my fun morning #ActOnClimate writing activity:
climate action rhymes for #NationalLimerickDay (this is a thing?) in no real order
Burning carbon changing our climate
Breaking records across the planet
Gives no time to waste
And all reasons to hasten
To change the world and don't chance it
#ActOnClimate #NationalLimerickDay
Once upon gases in the Atmosphere
From fuel fumes jam-packed way too near
Because humans released them
And what's unleashed can still end
Happily or ever after in fear
#NationalLimerickDay #ActOnClimate
I once knew a climate hero
Who actually didn't have a key role
But just listened and acted
Today better impacted
And that person could be you tomorrow
#NationalLimerickDay #ActOnClimate
The consequences of extraction
Are not a poetic abstraction
People have, are, and will die
But less if we actually try
So let's take some f*cking climate action
#NationalLimerickDay #ActOnClimate
Pollution choking our climate
Killing life across of our planet
Can still be reversed
Breaking Big Oil's curse
When we stop burning bones and ban it
#NationalLimerickDay #ActOnClimate
If history's rhyme does presage
The medium is the message
Like a limerick to emphasize
We must clean electrify
And fight against climate wreckage
