Help save the ocean
With peace and devotion,
Love and care can be in motion.
A chain that can be unbroken,
Will you help save the ocean?
Sea life that is drastic,
+8 billion people? Surely we can cut down on that plastic.
How could this all be so tragic?
Conserving water is the spell to our healing potion,
Using less water at home? Good!
That's less wastewater flowing into the global ocean.
Available are also waste bins for your empty suntan lotion.
Written art to amplify the voiceless,
All it takes is for eco-friendly choices.
A switch flipped rated adequate,
Each day is available to be an active advocate.
With centuries of screw-ups,
We now have 75 to 199 million tons of plastic in the ocean.
Holy holy or roly poly?
Since when did plastic pollution become an impulse?
Gold thrown overboard, only then he jumps.
All it takes is participation in ocean clean-ups.
Be a good tourist,
Be a citizen scientist,
Make an item list,
And bump with an iron fist.
We are chosen,
The mighty sea has already spoken,
With an honest notion,
Let us help save the ocean.
