Report From The North Pole

Lyrics

[Polar Bears] Good morning from the Arctic Circle We've got your weather news today We're reporting live from our North Pole station Overlooking Hudson Bay You can call us your bear-ometers 'Cause we don't need thermometers To bring you this early warning So we can all fight global warming [Jack] Global warming is caused by gases Mostly one called CO2 [Lou] It comes from that technology that makes life so good for you [Bob] Oil that heats your home and power plants and industry help build a greenhouse dome [Jack] This dome of gas is trapping heat that used to head for space And that hеat is melting ice Ice that usеd to be our base [Polar Bears] From up here, we can see so clearly We see that Earth's good health is at stake Now its wondrous creatures do depend On the actions everyone can take We've all got to work together In this fight to save the weather 'Cause what's happening up where we are Just might happen down where you are [Lou] And now, on location with our cub reporter [Polar Bear Cub] Hey, whale, you never ate plankton here before [Whale] Well, global warming's changing currents Now my meals are further offshore [Polar Bear Cub] Hey, grizzly, how come you're having dinner in trashy dumps like these? [Grizzly Bear] Berries in the mountains are starting to run out Those bushes don't grow near us because they're in a drought [Polar Bear Cub] Mr. Panda, you look all bamboozled [Panda] Sure, I'm all bamboozled, all I eat this bamboo And these leaves are very good at helping cut down CO2 But even though earth scientists know all about that fact Man keeps chopping, cutting down our habitat [Polar Bears] We've all got to work together In this fight to save the weather 'Cause what's happening up where we are Just might happen down where you are Our planet is a wondrous place Of limitless diversity And we've got to work to save it From this climate change adversity The more our air is fouled up By this noxious gaseous overcast The harder it'll be to find the balance Of our planet's recent past [Lou] If we all just shortened our hot showers by thirty seconds [Jack] Power plants would make less of that smoke that dirties up the air For both you and us bears [Polar Bears] We've all got to work together In this fight to save the weather 'Cause what's happening up where we are Just might happen down where you are
