Can you quantify the intangible benefits

Of our natural environment?

What is the market value of a tree?

Or of the air we breathe?

What are the hidden costs

Of a species or a people lost?

What's the price of our prosperity?

Cuz you know no lunch is ever free.

Not even for the rich with their

Slash and Burn economics.

Slash and Burn baby,

It's time we learn…

Cuz there's a hole in the ozone

Chemicals seep into our homes

Poisons in the air we breath

Pesticides in the food we eat.

Ice caps melting

Ocean levels rising

Land fills of toxic waste

Nuke Puke that radiates

Rain forests cut down

To make way for Mad Cow

Messing with the gene pool

Like a Frankenstein fool

Biodiversity, a victim of prosperity

Species going extinct

It's time to stop and think!

GLOBAL WARMING is a GLOBAL WARNING!

The World can't afford this

Slash and Burn economics!

Slash and Burn!

When will we ever learn?

Time to stop and think

Before we become extinct!

GLOBAL WARMING is a GLOBAL WARNING!

The World can't afford this Slash and Burn economics!
