Footprint Eraser

Footprint Eraser
Written By: D. Collins 10/5/14
America had better get onboard with the Dutch.
Our most abundant exhaust is what will save us.
We produce this compound in metric tons of waste.
We could recycle it even before it gets to space.
We could send craft to grab it in the atmosphere.
What we’ve put out there, could last the world for years.
Imagine if we could get India and China onboard.
Think of the amount of oxygen you could call yours.
Trees would grow taller than what they are right now.
But, the oil industry will not allow that to go down.
They will fight and scratch. Cut off oil to the craft.
Show Koch Brothers commercials of the industry’s past.
