G LOBAL WARMING is a myth says TRUMP
L ies by Chinese to make our Oilmen jump
O il that's refined to GAS for motor cars
B lack exhaust fumes to make us hot like Mars
A shamed the Oilmen ~ for the oil they pump
L evels of CO2 are rising Mister Trump !
W hat would happen to the USA ~ If
A ll their cars were spirited away ?
R ain Forests were preserved and not cut down
M en were required to walk to work in Town
I like the fact that England's getting warmer
N o need to go to Europe in the Summer
G LOBAL WARMING'S real it isn't rot ~ This Winter
S outhern England's getting really HOT !
Thanks for reading ~ comments welcome ~ BRIAN
I am indebted to WG7 a bright Young Lady for the use of RED
Has SPRING sprung early where you are living ?
This Poem is presented as a 6~8 Acrostic Sonnet ~ OK

- Comment from author about the poem: GLOBAL WARMING is a controversial subject and one PRESIDENT TRUMP chooses to ignore. In America over 80% of people own a car (only 50% in the UK) and together with industry they are one of the biggest producers of CO2 per person on Earth. Carbon Dioxide is a "greenhouse gas" because it traps heat in the atmosphere. It has risen for 250 to 380 ppm since he Industrial Revolution and the ambient global temperature has risen from 15 to 16C. This increases drought and causes the Arctic and Antarctic ice to melt (destroying habitats) and raising global sea levels. We must all be Greener ~ God gave Man responsibility for Planet Earth ~ if we destroy it (by 2100 ?) there is NOWHERE ELSE TO GO ! Comments welcome ~ Love to ALL ~ BRIAN XOX

Fantastic sonnet on a topical subject Brian - - acrostic and coloured the message makes us more aware. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks FAY Its useful when the letters add up to 14 ! I tried to keep each line to iambic pentameter and rhyme as well ~ three constraint because it\'s also an acrostic ! Thanks for you kind comment on a very important topic ~ B.
Over 17000 species are on either the vuneral, endangered or critically endagered list. If all of them were to slip away. It would be the biggest extinction in earths history. I like these sort of subjects. Very well done.
Thanks for your comment TIZER and the data. If we shift the equilibrium of the climate of Planet Earth we must accept the consequences. Pleased you are interested in Environmental Conservation & Protection ~ BRIAN
Global warming is a major problem. Great write
HI TONY ~ Thanks for your appreciation of my Ode ~ BRIAN
Welcome
Fantastic acrostic in iambic pentameter! Even more is the awareness of where our planet is headed! I loved the poem! And am always thankful for your authors notes. Sad to see where we are headed. Hugs-Christina
THANKS CHRIS ~ Pleased you enjoyed it ! A poem with a Scientific basis does need a little explanation ! Jefferson was a Philosopher and educated and very very intelligent Man. Compared with him TRUMP is still in his nappies ! It is TRUMP'S ignorance (not only of politics) that worries me. GLOBAL WARMING is a major issue (as you know) and each American produces 17.5 tonnes of CO2 per year TRUMP has a major responsibility to lower this ! Canada (14.7) Russia (12.2) Japan (9.3) UK (8.0) and China (6.2) The USA is twice that of UK & Japan and three times China. How on Earth did he get to be in charge ? You can buy a house in Liverpool for $150,000 ~ $450,000 near London ~ CO2 free Hugs ~ BRIAN
I wouldn't mind if in the US we had no cars. I woukd walk everywhere. I love trees/nature, and I wish they would preserve rainforests. Also with trump as president earth won't be destroyed by 2100 it will be destroyed by this year or next year. I am not going to be surprised if we do have a nuclear war while trump is president. Plus I see that you did use the red.
Thanks for your COMMENTS ~ Trump is liability ~ He is so so ignorant of everything not just politics ! Yes I did use the red and have had some positive comments ~ Sorry ~ meant to give you an acknowledgement at the bottom of the page ! Yours BRIAN
Its cool I don't mind.

Man might yet be the creator of his own destruction - powerful piece put over so well.
Well MICHAEL according to GHIA Theory ~ The whole of Planet Earth is a living organism and she shifts her parameters to oppose constraints (like increased atmospheric CO2) and restore equilibrium. To oppose pollutants and other negative human effects Planet Earth could shift in such a way (Global Warming ~ Sea Level Rise etc) as to make it UNINHABITABLE for Homo Sapiens ~ GOD FORBID ~ Thanks BRIAN
