A Step too Far?

Today! Some news with weighty clout:
Our sustainability is in doubt
The year, red hot, has months to run
But sadly we have jumped the gun

And consumed much more than we create
Think Mother Earth - with empty plate!
With populations on the rise
And freak weather – no surprise...

Our Planet's ruffled feathers fly!
To save ourselves we have to try
To be more moderate and take care
But Greed still rules, alas – Beware!

Fossil fuels and water sources
Are finite, dwindling resources
Social media makes complaint
But when will Man show some restraint?
