373 - Sustainability plans, borderless

Sustainability plans, borderless,
Continent-wide, world-wide, must be devised,
In which all the areas in a mess
Right now can be cleaned up, future revised.
Not just geographic - have you surmised? -
But areas of our activity,
And all of these things need to be downsized
To what can be supported naturally.
Levels of population linked to the
Resources: rivers, fertile land, unless
We want millions to stay poor, be excised
By flood, drought, war, meteor; well, do we?
Or should we manage earth and us? Confess:
We’re not now, and our future’s compromised.
