Us, the Hero and the Villian

Bang! Logs crash onto the forest floor,
Animals run as fast as a car...
A tree transforms into a door.
You can see from the floor up to the stars.
I stare at the tree, the tree stares at me.
Plastic floats like poison in water,
Animals choke in its deadly grasp.
Coral’s colour fades into the corner.
It won’t survive, it won’t, it can’t.
I stare at the sea, the sea stares at me.
Is there a way?
There is a way.
Solar power and wind for the win.
No oil or coal or we’ll be stuck in this hole.
To be fantastic, don’t use soft plastic.
Reduce, reuse, recycle, or ride a bicycle!
Together we can all make a difference
It all starts with one thing.
It all starts with you.
