A story to some...but a future to all
Hello Humans! I am Splash. I have to explain everything in the nick of time! Unfortunately, time doesn't grow on trees...and even if it did...we don't currently have any! There is huge chaos...destruction...scarcity and much more! I will soon run out, so let me do this fast!
This is your near future, a couple of years from now. The human race is facing a lot of calamities. This is due to Global Warming, a consequence resulting because of unwise decisions of humans. People have been struck by shock very late, but you can still save yourselves! First, let me tell you a story. A story to help you understand. A story, to help you get your life back...

A FEW CENTURIES AFTER FORMATION OF PANGAE, THE AGE OF DINOSAURS
This is Splash, again. This story takes place a million decades, before your very existence. The time of dinosaurs, a myth to your current world, but an age of miracles and peace. Dinosaurs were poor, calm and innocent creatures. Sure, they fought for hunger, the very base of their vast civilization.
But they never harmed other creatures, not even a bit.
This resulted in our friendship- water bodies and dinosaurs. This formed a sense of symbiosis, we respected them, as did they do the same. As days passed, we came closer. We provided them with water to hydrate them, and they promised to keep us clean and safe. This went on for years and years, to go on.
But a few years later...something apart from our routine, occurred. The sky darkened. Clouds thudded. Lightning struck. And a spaceship landed on Pangae.
Everyone turned hostile against the spaceship, and was about to charge towards it. But the spaceship produced a sound, a voice letting us know that it had come in peace. Then the doors opened, disclosing a green creature come out and set foot on land. An alien.
The alien presented its matter. The planet on which they lived, Mercury, was coming closer to the sun. If this continued longer, aliens would perish. We listened to them and realized that if we helped them then we would be universally blessed and would be famous. We decided to help them.
It would take us about 4 months to reach mercury. We bid the dinosaurs farewell and took off in the alien spaceship. 4 months later, we reached. The sun sure was hot, so we decided to destroy it. We sent some water rivers towards the sun....and none of them made it back! They evaporated before touching the sun. We tried doing everything possible but, even after 3 months we couldn't make any progress.
After many months, we decided to help the aliens abandon the planet and settle on Mars. The thing is aliens ate moist soil. So we kept some of our water into the core of Mars, to keep the aliens well nourished. We partied for many weeks after that, as the aliens didn't know how to thank us! But among all the excitement, we forgot about the dinosaurs!
Immediately, we made haste to Earth at full speed....as the dinosaurs had been without us for about a year and a half! As soon as we entered the atmosphere, we realized that we were too late. The dinosaurs had perished, they were extinct. We all felt bad, and promised to make sure we never let the next creatures die because of us.
That was the story. Now I don't expect you to make a stupid movie on this for your stupid money, no.
I told you this story for a reason. Now, substitute yourselves with the water bodies, the aliens as your stupid, meaningless desires and the dinosaurs as you, water and plants and animals. See? We behaved selfishly, but we promised not to let you all die.
So what are you waiting for? Save water, plants and animals! Not because I have told you so, but because of your heart and spirit of humanity. I can't do much now. We will soon die, but if you listen to me, we might have a chance. So farewell for now, and see you in the not so distant future.
As the story I narrated was only a story to some, but a future to all.
