The Weather forecast is dire ~~~ I am sure the weather will get better.
Continual rain will never stop. ~~~ We will probably not get a drop.
The crops will fail, we are set to starve ~~ The predictions are overstated.
Global warming is taking it’s toll. ~~ We will all eat well and survive on a roll
The world will become a gigantic desert ~~ Our scientists are all very clever
The soil will dry and become sand. ~~ They will find ways to defeat the threat
The oil will run out, we will grind to a halt ~ We will discover new fuels to survive
The Earth will become dust millions will starve. ~ New foods to feed our young
We will all take a trip to outer Space. We are in this thing together.
