Chop! Chop! Chop!
Oh, no! The loggers are here.
Fump! Fump! Fump!
They're cutting down trees.
Crish! Crash! Crush!
OMG! It's like half the forest is gone!

Uh, oh, that factory's making smoke,
and that pollution will make you choke.
We need to shut it down!
Although it will give the manager a frown.

See now what pollution made.
You know it woulkn't easily fade.
So come on all the young and the old,
and also the weak and the strong.
Come on, and let's make this world a better place

Thwack! Thwack!
Everyday we're blistering
the Earth's skin.
Come on! Look!
The ozone layer
is just to thin.

Th world where once
it was all green,
covered with plants,
animals, and beans,
is now a world,
a terrible world,
filled with trash,
it might all just crash.

It's fun and all,
bathed in luxury,
but all the plants,
animals too,
are screaming in fury.

The sky is no longer blue!
Help, what shall I do?
For time can never be reversed.
All the scars we've made,
is kept in the universe.

Technology seems as good as gold,
But we humans never listen to what we're told.
For now we've destroyed,
a lot of our home,
'cause in space we just can't
live out in a dome.

The only ball of hope is escaping. Will you grab it or let it go??

Little Lights cause Large pains to Linger.

The earth is so round and cute
what you would not want to pollute
if you discover the truth
you would never pollute.
someday you will finally see
the unwanted sight of our polluted sea
from the most powerful tree
to the most valuable seed
the mom is the earth
because it gives us birth
Enjoy the earth, treat it kind
the planet is yours and mine

WWHHRR!! SMASH! There goes the chainsaw!
HOLY ****! Look at all that pollution!
The fish are all dead!
Look at the birds, they're half-dead!
CRRMMM! Here come the bulldozers!
OH MY GOD! THE FOREST IS ON FIRE (or whatever is left of the forest)!

The bulldozers are here, their eyes flashing.
The blade machines are there, there claws slashing.
Here come the trucks.
Oh man, that sucks.
Save the Earth from these beasts.
Or they'll have a lot of tree feasts.

The enviroment is in danger.
From what they call strangers.
Snakes, crocodiles and much more.
We humans make them all feel sore.
So save the forests, mountains, rivers and lakes,
the savanahs, the jungles for Earth's sake.

Humans destroy so much that it's hot,
that in Egypt people's skin will rot!
The japanese kill so many whales,
that there are only nine females.
The male whales have none left and are extinct,
so japanese have karma which cause them to stink.
If we don't save the Earth as swiftly as we can,
then people can't be cheerful 'cause there won't be land.

SAVE THE EARTH AS FAST AS WE CAN OR THERE WON'T BE A PLACE TO STAND!

It's Our Job

What are we saving the earth from?
The earth helps us and gives us a place to live.
But what if you're a whale and your
Home is full of trash?
But what if you're a monkey or a bird and your
Home was just chopped down?
But what if you're a polar bear and your
Home just melted away?
But what if you're wolf and people
Just moved into your neighborhood?
WHO are we saving the earth from?
It is our job to defend, save, support,
Guard and watch over the earth.

We come together and live on Earth,
and we spread all the love.
Until...


VROOL-VROOL
OH NO! The loggers are cutting down our treesfor other people's needs and wants!
Now that almost the forests are gone...the little and big creatures,
have no habitats for them to live!
When everything used to be ALL green and peaceful...


Our home (The earth) is going to die,
and ALL the people are going to cry.


It's hard to actually feel,
but when we come to the part where nothing is left...


SAVE OUR WORLD,
Come on, if it was easy to kill the environment, then why can't it be easy for us to rebuild and bring back all the life to the world?
The rest of the future depends on our actions.
Humans, creatures, environment, and plants depend on the only Earth.
Help save it.

Come on, if we can easily kill the Earth, why couldnt it be easy for us to help rebuild the world?
So get started.
The rest of the future, is up to the rest of us.
So help it.

Earth has ozone layers,
that could protect me from cancer.
This planet is hot and cold,
and very big that I couldn't hold.
People now starting down trees,
to get wood when they're free.
We had to stop hurting the Earth,
or the Earth won't give us any birth.
It looks like a dome,
we call this place," Our home."

WE LOVE EARTH!!!!!

VROOM! VROOM!
The construction cars push the trees branch to floor.
This makes the entrance to the unfriendly environmental door.
CHOP! SMASH!
The forest cutting people have cut a hundred trees.
They also kill plants and animals by dumping poisonous wee.
BANG! BANG!
Forest cutting people shoot at the animals for food.
They kill but they should not.

The big,round planet,
is our home and it is the only one.
If we don't save it, then who will save it?

Whirr whirr whirr,
the sounds of an engine roaring...
Oh no not again!
The cutting machine is cutting down trees,
destroying the homes of the buzzing bees.

Once, the sky had been clear,
but now it's like the color of a beer!
The trees had been green, growing delicous beans,
but now no beens can be seen.
The ocean had once been blue,
but now it's grey and sticky like a glue.

Throwing trash on the ground,polluting the air,
that wouldnt seem quite fair.
People have their want and their need,
but it isnt good if you want it with greed.

The Earth is the only planet in the galaxy,
that has oxygen,plants, animals and us human depend on it.
Lets save the Earth before it is too late.

There once was an earth,
a pretty round earth.

An earth with clean water,
an earth with blue sky.

But that was before,
and look at it now.

You might think,
were living in hell somehow!

Right now,
VROOM!!! VROOM!!!
10 by 10,
BOOM!!!
trees are cutt down.

The ozone layer,
is getting thinner every day,
and I decided that I should pray!

But I still didn't know what to do,
PLOP!
so I planted a tree down.

the more the tree grew,
I yelled,
WOO! HOO!

Then a bee came by.
The bee said,
I want to buy!
Buy what?
I asked.
The bee said,
YOUR TREE! trade with some honey!
But I refused to sell the tree,
and I said,
you can own it for free!
Right now I know,
my business is planting trees!

Mother Earth is like our home,
It has an ozone layer, like a dome,
That protects us and other living things.
Until one day...

Vroom vroom!
Here comes the logger with a machine
that cuts through trees and burns the forests.
People want and are getting more and more,
The trees are becoming fewer each day.
The Earth cries when we overuse electricity,
When its waters are full of toxicity.
Technology is good for us,
but it is bad for the animals.
If the land was to be filled with trash,
No longer could the animals live.
We then will not see the clear sky,
and the seas, the creatures and the trees,
would vanish in a world fraught with pollution.
Oh no! This layer of ozone
is getting thinner.
No more protection for us.

You can think of this yourself.
What have we done to the Earth?
Our planet will die if we pollute it too much.
We should stop this,
And start cleaning the world up.

BAM!!!
There it is the gigantic round blue green ball
before Ptolemy even think we would fall.
FRING!!!
The invisible shield had formed
until there was the storm

ROAR!!!
There it was the dino's
it was even fierce than the rhinos
BOOM!!!
The volcano irrupted
before there was corruption

OOH AHH OH AHH!!!
sounds of homo erectus
it haven't seem to act like a platypus
YUM!!!
They like to eat dirt
but they dont even know how to flurt

TWEET!!!
birds are chirping
and homo sapians are slurping

WOOSH!!!
skies are blue
but want have no clue
WAM!!! ZIZZZZZ!!! PANG!!! BOOM!!!
they evolve
until the rocks had dissolve.

WEEW!!!

The Earth is our cozy home.
It holds many biomes.
Including humble plants.
Which can be bigger than your pants!

The Earth also is a good position in the solar system in space.
That makes a good life pace.
It will make us survive easier.
So that we will not have to suffer under Mr.Meanier.

So if we have our little earth home.
Why do we have to harm the dome?
We pollute and pollute and kill.
We don't pay respect to the bill.

WE SHOULD SAVE ENVIROMENT!

-Earth Day-

Our home is filled with technology,
Though birds sing, and dolphins jump,
We sometimes just don't realise,
That we're making our home a dump.

Earth is now in danger,
The ocean is dirty,
The forest is a mess,
How could we help?

It's never too late,
To do what's right,
Cause' it's for Earth's sake,
Through day and night.

Mankind! Long before your birth,
and the beauty of Mother Earth.
She gave birth to living things of all kinds…plants and insects, animals and birds
A heven you have chosen to destroy!
Why…Mankind…Why?

Mankind! took birth in the earth you strolled in,
bringing up sorrow to all her children.
You were meant to be the leader of all the creation,
but you chose to be the enemy of life by bringing destruction.
Why…Mankind...Why

Mankind! Long before your birth,
before the beauty of Mother Earth.
She gave birth to living things of all kinds…plants and insects, animals and birds.
All, an exotic reflection of her biodiversity,
A diversity you have chosen to destroy!
Why…Mankind…Why?

Mankind! Onto the face of the earth you strolled in,
bringing up the rear in all her children.
You were meant to be the pride of all creation,
but you chose to be the bane of life by bringing destruction.
Why…Mankind…why?
