I will agree, there is great risk and damage to the environment from the use of oil, fossil fuels and the extraction of them. Your poetic message is well made, and the sentiments understood. BUT... it is one sided. Feeling about the negatives are justified but ignoring all the positives, and advancements made to human society, life, health and yes, live saved and improved by great strides because of foil and fossil should never be ignored. I only wish people consider what their lives, all of our would be like without fossils fuels. Without plastics? Without the heating, transportation, and medical advancements because of them.

Thanks for the review. I agree there are many things that we have gained benefit from through the use of fossil fuels. But ignoring the danger of its use is quite mind blowing. Anyway, again it is my opinion. Take care and have a wonderful day.

Excellent message! I personally can't stand when Trump takes that to some euphoric place and shouts "Drll, baby, drill!" Sure, his grandchildren can run off to the moon. We are watching billionaires exploit our planet and create funds for their eventually life on Mars. This outrage should be turned into global action. He's dangerous to all of us!
Peace,
Alex

Thanks for the review Alex. He sure is a dangerous man, especially when his side-kick Elon is in the wings. I fear things will get worse before they get better.
Take care and Keep writing.
