To Quote a Kid – Part II

“We are in the beginning
               of a mass extinction,
               and all you can talk about
               is money and fairy tales
               of eternal economic growth . . .
How dare you!”

                             Greta Thunberg
                             at the U.N. General Assembly

It maybe a few long decades
               BEFORE we clearly feel and see
               the awful truth of her icy words.
Now, 2019, we have the December failure
               of the U.N. climate conference to
               demand and pledge yet again to
               perhaps slow the warming.
A grand international do-too-little by 193
               very independent, very sovereign,
               sovereign nations who can't commit
               to more difficult carbon changes.
Under a weak, weak United Nations!

Anyone for a strong world government with
               peace warriors to deal with warming
               and our endless violent warring?
