The oceans are warming – and acidifying – save the plankton!

Save the Plankton

Chorus

Save the plankton, save the plankton in the sea
Save the plankton, keep it floating free!

Happy plankton need enough to eat
But alas, they’re starting to feel the heat
Overwhelmed by CO2
Poor old plankton – what can it do?

Chorus

Plankton that cannot photo-synthesise
Starves, shrivels up and dies
And so, carbon, endlessly
Goes on filling up the sea

Chorus

To keep our plankton floating happily
We’ve got to do something, and do it quickly
Keep that carbon in the ground
Change our ways – reverse the positive feedback loop
And turn things around…..

Chorus


Starves, shrivels up and dies
