It's been a secret

i'm the elephant in your room,
and yes, i use words
to tell you to wake up,
climate change isn't just for nerds.
 
will our foods alone solve the problem?
no, I am afraid not.
but reducing our footprint
will help our children be less hot.
 
it may take awhile
for my story to spread.
as it often takes time
to change what's in one’s head.
 
join us, share my story
with your family & friends, 
it's on new actions
that this world of ours depends.
