A slightly different Christmas song
We better watch out
We better not fly
We better not doubt
The scientists' cry
Climate change is coming to town
They have made a list
Checked it more than twice
And what's on that list
Is not really nice
Climate change is coming to town
It looks like we've been sleeping
And haven't been awake
It looks like we've been pretty bad
So let's change for goodness sake!
We better not bitch
We better not moan
We better not whinge
Or grumble or groan
Climate change is flooding the town
The Arctic is in meltdown
And Santa lost his base
He's now a climate refugee
And looking for a space
We better not put
Our heads in the sand
The matter has gotten
Well out of hand
Climate change is wearing us down
We love to drive our guzzlers
Don't care about EVs
And all our money paid for gas
Is going overseas
We better retreat
We better adapt
We better make sure
Emissions are capped
Climate change is bucketing down
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
