Solution Poem by Doug Lane

I just heard
that the wealthiest 1%
create twice as much
CO2 pollution
as the poorest three billion people
on the globe.

And then I thought,
the Republican "green" solution
to this pollution problem
would be to reduce
CO2 emissions
by reducing
the other 5 billion people
to the same level of poverty
as the poorest 3 billion.

That way the richest 1%
would produce the same amount of CO2
as, roughly,
all the other people on the globe.

Problem solved!
