What is the meaning of the term green wars in the poem 'Keeping Quiet' by Pablo Neruda?
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.

What are the figures of speech in the poem keeping quiet?
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.
