I WOULD LIKE TO SAY “CONGRATULATIONS”
THE UN DID IT
AND DID IT FOR EVERY NATION

PARDON THE INTERRUPTION
ALL THESE ACCOMPLISHMENTS, AND REALLY
YOU’VE ACCOMPLISHED NOTHING
SPECIES EXTINCTION
POLLUTION AS THE TEMPERATURE RISES
WE’RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A
TRIPLE PLANETARY CRISIS
WE DON’T DENY THIS
TRIPLE PLANETARY CRISIS
EXACTLY WHY UNEP EXISTS
‘TOGETHER’ IS THE ONLY WAY
OUR PLANET GETS FIXED

WITH LESS HUMAN INTERFERENCE
WE ALL SAW WHAT HAPPENED
DURING THE PANDEMIC…

YOU SEE EXACTLY WHERE I’M GETTING AT
NATURE’S CONTINUITY

OUR APOLOGIES
BETTER GLOBAL QUALITY

ALL OF OUR INTERESTS DIFFER
TOOTHLESS POLICY LEAVES ONLY
PAPER TIGERS UNENDANGERED
MULTILATERALISM, YES

THE EFFECTS OF WHAT WE GO THROUGH
BIODIVERSITY LOSS

THE TIME FOR RESTORATION
MULTILATERALISM IS YOUR VISION
ITS HARD TO MAKE DECISIONS

BUT SO ARE THE SOLUTIONS
LIKE THE LOSS AND DAMAGE FUND
OR AGREEMENTS ON PLASTIC POLLUTION
IT WONT BE EASY
BUT I THINK I’M UNDERSTANDING YOUR PLAN
THE BEST THING’S FOR US TO COME TOGETHER AND…
