LET’S CARE OF NATURE

Only when all the rivers have run dry And all the fish in the sea have died Only when all the rainforests have been burnt down And there is no food for the animals Only when all the blue skies have been filled with smoke And the cities of the world have choked Will the white man understand That it’s too late to save the Earth. (Native American poem )

Только когда реки осушатся И в океанах умрет рыба вся. Только когда все леса будут сожжены И не будет когда для животных еды, Только когда покроются дымом все небеса И будут в дыму все города, Белый человек поймет только тогда, Что жизни спасать слишком поздно!
