The Suffering of Ecochoko

That is when Pollution, along with her friends, Fire,

Smoke, Noise, Lumberjack and Garbage, destroyed
his beautiful village. Everyone missed Eco and

wished that he was still around. Many came to

mourn his suffering. The plant community suffered

as a drought had already begun.

The Marine Life Squad members were still there; at
least, what was left of them. The birds that should

have flown high in the sky struggled to walk as

their wings were stuck from oil spills and they

could not take flight. The worst part of it all was

that they could not even walk on Eco’s favorite
beach as Garbage had piled all the debris so high

that there was no space for movement and

Lumberjack had cut down most of the trees,

including his favorite cherry blossom tree.

The moral of the story and Eco’s motto is “Be good
to Mother Nature and the ecosystem and never let

Pollution sneak her way in.”
