4. What about sunrise
What about rain
What about all the things
Than you said we were to gain…
What about killing fields
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine…
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we’ve shed before
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying Earth, the weeping shores?
Aaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaaaah
What have we done to the world
Look what we’ve done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son…
What about flowering fields
Is there a time
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine…
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children died from war
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying Earth ,the
weeping shores?
Aaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaaah
I used to dream
I used to glance beyond the
stars
Now I don’t know where we
are
Although I know we’ve drifted
far
Aaaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaah
16. Solar power for cars is one of the most promising alternatives
being developed. Though still in its infancy stages, the technology
made a major advancement recently when a completely solar-powered
car made a successful journey around the world. Swiss teacher and
adventurer Louis Palmer built his own car that runs completely off of
solar power. It can go as fast as 55mph and can travel 185 miles on a
full battery.
Palmer arrived at the U.N. Climate Conference this past week after
spending the past 17 months traveling through 38 countries. Palmer’s
journey represents the first solar-powered car to successfully drive
around the world. Palmer undertook this mission to demonstrate to
the conference and to the world as a whole that it is possible to cut
fuel-related carbon emissions by 100%.
17. We never know the worth of water till the well is dry.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the
last fish been caught will we realize we cannot eat money?
Earth is not a gift from our parents; it’s a loan from our children.
Man shapes himself through decision that shapes his environment.
It's amazing how people can get so excited about a rocket to the moon
and not give a damn about smog, oil leaks and devastation of the
environment with pesticides, hunger and disease. When the poor share
some of the power that the affluent now monopolize, we will give a damn.
Cesar E. Chavez (1927-1993)

The best solution
To arrest pollution

Recycling became a daily
household chore
To reduce costs and protect the
seashore!
Reduction of emissions created
the flow -
Of cleanerair, and polluters took
a blow!
Dumping of sewage into lakes and
streams
Was banned to prevent leery
public screams!
Pollution of waterbecame a salient
issue to protect human health
and aquatic tissue!

And do things right to hearloud

roles,
To avoid the agonies of all future
souls!
Conserve the wateras much as you

While you are bathing orwashing the
van!
Recycle and prevent pollution at the
source,
While care should be motive and the
hidden force! Plant the trees in open
private space,
To create the shade and cool your
face!
Try the carpool with a friend, orshare

To control the airand emission ebb

manner,
And label before you bury 'emundera
