So we must keep our planet clean,

                 And make it look green,

                 Fill it with air that is fresh and clear,

                 For all to breathe year after year.

          “Small drops form an ocean” is a well known saying. The little things we do can go a

          long way in protecting Mother Earth. So let us all come together in our effort to save
          Planet Earth because it’s the only one we’ve got.
