Finally, I wrote a poem with science as a prompt!
This is about the tragic life (almost humourous to me)of an American chemist.
Thomas Midgley Jr. was a chemist known for his disastrous inventions— leaded gasoline and freon (chlorofluorocarbons), both of which had devastating long-term effects on human health and the environment.
*Leaded gasoline contributed to widespread lead poisoning, while CFCs played a major role in depleting the ozone layer.
Ironically, many workers died due to lead poisoning but he was saved as he got his treatment secretly in Miami.
His work highlights the dangers of scientific advancement driven by profit without consideration of environmental or ethical consequences, earning him the grim distinction of
"the man who almost killed the Earth twice" [source: Internet]
