Sense Sonnet - Chiller

Rain Forest Afire

The Amazon rain forests burn.
Most of the fires are human made.
Small cattle ranchers seek to turn
The land to profitable trade,
Removing the unwanted trees
So as to allow the grass to grow
For the cattle, and guarantees
More bad news as bad gases flow.
Less trees, more carbon dioxide,
And more the cows, the more methane.
Both of these gases when allied
Cause worse global warming to gain.

As the rain forests cease to be
The more there looms catastrophe.
