The Most Destructive Of All

'Twould seem that we evolved from primates our ancestors swung from the trees
And our distant cousins are gorillas, orang utans and chimpanzees
Though with them we share little in common we have evolved quite differently
Humans have travelled to other planets and gone far in technology.

Yet we are the most destructive of all of Earth's creatures to Mother Earth more harm we do
Than any other species of life to Nature we never are true
Destruction of habitat leads to extinction and billions of trees each year by humans cut down
For to grow crops and put up new buildings and make room for another town.

Despite our amazing successes we are our own worst enemies
We don't do our Planet any favours when we remove billions of trees
When we pillage Nature's wild kingdom the price for us will be huge to pay
We abuse the Planet that feeds us and we will live to regret that one day.
