Pues cae la noche y ya se van

Nuestras miserias a dormir.

Vamos subiendo la cuesta

El prohombre y el gusano

Bailan y se dan la mano

Sin importarles la facha.////

One Edition One Copy

Kaushal Kishore

I’m an open book
that has only one edition
and only one copy,
in which every moment and
memory of my life is captured,
both good and bad,
but in either case,
people don’t like to read,
but tear my pages
to throw them away
or pocket them
for their own pleasure

And I’m giving it my all
in an exciting fight to the finish,
though I know,
there won’t be fairytale ending,
due to termites here and there,
but I enjoy every moment
of the thrill…

Based on these findings, the authors warn that more than a fifth of ecosystems worldwide, including the Amazon rainforest, are at risk of a catastrophic breakdown within a human lifetime.

“It could happen very soon,” said Prof Simon Willcock of Rothamsted Research, who co-led the study. “We could realistically be the last generation to see the Amazon.”

The research, which was published on Thursday in Nature Sustainability, is likely to generate a heated debate. Compared with the long-established and conclusively proven link between fossil fuels and global heating, the science of tipping points and their interactions…
