The future of energy

Or the future of exploitation?

A poem inspired by this article.

New energy source.

Renewable energy.

Sounds pretty great right?

Of course it sounds great

We all want to fix the world

But…what is the cost?

“Future Energy”

Also means “future profits”

And…exploitation

Ok..So what?

When there’s money made

There’s people to profit from

And land to ruin

It’s not the future

If old practices are used

We must do better
