Me. Aside from tea, it’s a serious problem, this “sea ice melts en masse”. Polar bears would not care for tea.

It's astounding how so many choose to remain ignorant of global warming's ramifications. The cynicism of the third line (not sure if punctuation marks, or indeed cynicism, is acceptable in the haiku form, however). The sibilance of the second line sets the negative tone. The science sceptics would prefer to sip tea rather than plant a tree, or two ;-) Looks like the poor old polar bears, and humans, are running out of room as fast as the sun rises..

Rising temperatures as a topical talking point across the tea cups.

Hilarious Sue, that's a good one. We are getting into hot water just like the ocean's temperature. Poached fish will be popular soon. Comments are closed.
