Tsunami Measures

I am sad at the destruction and weep at the faces

of the people affected by the tsunami

I wonder at the physical devastation and

can't begin to think of the pain of those who died

I think about the impact of the 8 foot move of Japan

Can someone calculate the Cee Oh Twos?

Have we gained or did we lose?

Can it be worked out, I'm sure somebody can

It's environmental, so use environmental measures

Rather than economic or political ones

And factor in the human loss

Before coming too judgemental
