So, what can we do?

  • Use environmental safe products
  • Compost
  • Dispose of trash properly
  • Recycle everything you can
  • Don't litter

Contrast

Rather than talk positively about the Earth, "Warned" seems to speak negatively about issues pertaining to pollution.

Quotes

"Ocean floors sandy white

Now littered, brown, pollution's plight"

"And then my heart with pleasure fills, And dances with the Daffodils."

Comparison

One looks at the beauty taken from flowers, whereas the other tells how there is beauty, but how we are destroying it.

  • describe similar scenery
  • talk of a certain topic, then at the very end, explains a different or opposing one.
  • our fault for pollution & vacant thoughts can be turned around
