Keeling Curve
Keeling Curve, “Keeling Curve…
What’s that?” you say, well, what a nerve!
But you’re going to get what you deserve
From the Keeling Curve, Keeling Curve…
Today it’s Atmos-here, Atmos-there
Atmos-every-bloody-where!
But we must learn to take more care
Or tomorrow it’ll be Atmos… where?
Take more care; plant more trees!
Just hope we learn how not to freeze,
With a blanket covering Earth so fair
With lots of lovely low carbon-dioxide air;
Which you may think is very nice
But if we freeze that’s quite a price!
We need some CO-2 you see
To keep our air from running free
Off into Space as Keeling foresees
Causing all sorts of catastrophes
So by inches and degrees
We must learn how not to freeze
Nor warm too much the Atmosphere;
Or else learn how to live in fear
Of the Keeling Curve; “Keeling Curve…
What’s that?” you say, well what a nerve;
Hope you get what you deserve
From the Keeling Curve, Keeling Curve…
