Green Wars are conflicts caused by environmental issues. Rampant overpopulation is causing obvious damage to the atmosphere, rivers, rain forests and is causing desertification, loss of habitat and species, and so on. It is inevitable that this will lead to armed conflict, or Green Wars. The atmosphere belongs to all of us, not just China. Rivers flow through several countries; if California were still independent would they be happy about the trickle that was the mighty Colorado? Are you happy with the logging in the rainforests? Early wars were for land. Later wars were for resources. Future wars may be fought to protect the environment. Hello, Green Wars.

In the poem "Keeping Quiet" by Pablo Neruda, the 'we' refers to humanity as a whole. It represents all people coming together to reflect and connect with each other and the natural world.
In this line by Pablo Neruda, "it would be an exotic moment - an exotic moment in keeping quiet," the poet is likely referring to the idea of finding beauty or fascination in moments of silence or stillness. This could represent a unique or extraordinary experience of tranquility and reflection. It suggests the value of embracing quietness and the richness that can be found in being present in the moment.
The poet cautions not to confuse stillness with total inactivity. Life is an ongoing process and should not be associated with death. The poet does not want us to ruminate to death/bring life to a dead end.
Pablo Neruda penned this poem, 'Keeping Quiet'. For a word/phrase to be a figure of speech, it must not be read as seen. The word/phrase has an underlying meaning. In Neruda's 5th stanza he writes, 'Those who prepare green wars, wars of gas, wars of fire, (and) victories without survivors . . ' These phrases are figures of speech because Neruda refers to something more profound and elicits the poetry lover to think deeper. Humankind moves forward without thought waging war on the environment, uses poisoning gas to kill life during war, uses weapons that cause life to burn down/away; in the end winning deems one the victor yet no one is there to celebrate the spoilage. This is just one instance of figurative speech in this beautiful poem.
Counting up to twelve and keeping still in the poem "Keeping Quiet" by Neruda symbolizes the importance of mindfulness, self-awareness, and reflection. It suggests that by pausing, being silent, and contemplating our actions, we can foster a sense of unity with others and the world around us, promoting peace and understanding.
The poet Pablo Neruda in his poen Keeping Quiet invokes a powerful symbol of the earth to say that there can be life under apparent stillness. he also says that earth is a greater teacher.

The poet wants to initiate his mission of giving our existence a serious thought. He wants us to be productive in our silence
