(Verse 1)

In the realm of nature’s laws, we find our place,

As humans alter the world, at a rapid pace.

Newton’s second law, it rings so true,

As we increase the energy, our actions accrue.

(Chorus)

Force equals mass times acceleration,

In this world of change, our transformation.

From rising seas to violent rain,

The damage grows, with every gain.

(Verse 2)

Acceleration formula, it holds the key,

To understand the changes, that we now see.

As data reveals, a doubling trend,

In climate’s grip, we must contend.

(Chorus)

Force equals mass times acceleration,

In this world of change, our transformation.

From rising seas to violent rain,

The damage grows, with every gain.

(Bridge)

The rate of acceleration, it’s on the rise,

As sea levels climb, under ominous skies.

From 100 years to a mere 10,

The doubling period, shortens again.

(Verse 3)

The reign of violent rain, it sweeps the land,

As we alter the climate, with our human hand.

The damage mounts, with every storm,

As acceleration’s force takes form.

(Chorus)

Force equals mass times acceleration,

In this world of change, our transformation.

From rising seas to violent rain,

The damage grows, with every gain.

(Outro)

So heed the warning, in nature’s call,

For the force we wield, impacts us all.

In the equation of life, let’s find our grace,

And navigate the changes, with wisdom and pace.

ABOUT THE SCIENCE

By increasing the energy in the system, humans have increased flow volumes, masses and velocities leading to increased damage (and deaths.)

Newton’s second law: F = m * a

F = force

m = mass of an object

a = acceleration

By 2020, there was enough data to see the “doubling period” of some anthropogenic climate affects had gone from 100 years to 10 years. For instance the rate of sea level rise has gone from about 1.5 millimeters per year to over 3 millimeters. We expect to see the doubling period to continue to shrink raising the possibility of sea levels rising a foot/year by 2050.
