Pollution

[Peace and Good Environment are threats to Military Domination and Private Defense Industries – Kolki]

 

Humans end up polluting a part of the Earth!

Whatever we do to make our life easier or better!

Even as we make fire we pollute the air -

But that is something natural world can bear!

 

We feel so good planting a tree but pollute with fertilizer!

We care for dear plants but spray insecticides or bug killers!

That end up polluting soil, insects, bacteria and earthworms!

Logging to mining, speed boating to Space Shuttle mission -

It’s all about creating additional pollution!

 

Riding bicycle for short commute is a wonderful idea!

While driving gasoline car releases carbon dioxide in atmosphere!

Often adding carbon monoxide from vehicles without mufflers!

Not to mention the sound pollution that comes as a bonus!

Buildings and shopping malls expose living things under!

That equates to polluting when pesticides kill them over!

 

From fuelled bus to ship to train to airplanes to military jets -

We need energy constantly to run civilized brains!

Burning Coal, Gasoline, or Nuclear power

Forgetting resources are limited but enough to share!

 

Nothing pollutes jet streams like allied military sorties over!

Or football field size battleships bullying around the world!

That is why Kyoto is a threat to military power!

Although good for everything else we care –

Including economy, good jobs and life on Earth!
