We can put a car in Space
We can save this precious place
From solar heat and Co 2
And green up Mars before we’re through!
Give the Sun a solar shade
Carefully launched and skillfully made
That blocks enough of light and heat
That Earth is shaded, cool and sweet!
It’s not speculation far
We’ll do the opposite for Mars
It’s too cold a living space
So put a great big lens in place
That conserves the Son’s heat and light
And warms the ruby world to life!
As for rising CO 2
Grow our oil from algae goo
(Carbon neutral and cheaper too!)
Plant more trees
Fertilise the sapphire seas
Makes plankton grow
That makes more air
So when Future comes
We’ll still be there!
