My poem is one about the Earth pleading for a chance to exist without mankind polluting and destroying it. It speaks on environmental sustainability, climate issues, and how the actions of man lead to dire consequences, including death, for which we then blame the Earth, even though we are the direct cause. The poem calls on this generation to continue finding solutions and also suggests ways to prevent climate catastrophes. Overall, it is a poem that tells a story from Earth’s perspective.
