In Terra Veritas Good Earth
Awash in claims of green
Building trust among ex-spurt skeptics
Mass serial killer smudged thumbprints
Droughts idiosyncratic floods annual events
Too little yet too much
Tides falling rising hours apart
Future oily struggle over water
Relief camps cholera dysentery hotbeds
Sewage pollution black plague epidemics
Swollen blue corpses overpowering stench
Snakes swim under springy coils
At least five isolated island
States risk ceasing to exist
Sea level quicksand devastating Maldives
Sinking Tuvalu Bangladeshi expectations displaced
Gradual accelerated warming will disastrously
Impact America ’s national park glaciers
Imminent meltdown Joshua trees imperiled
See you later Everglades alligators
Climate change fossil fuel driven
Arrogance and ignorance jeopardize thousands
Ignoring ecologically destructive stopgap measures
Living in overcrowded harm’s way
