      Kudzu is some wild stuff, one vine tendril grows a foot a day and it kills entire forests.

        Maybe we could start rolling it up into balls and burying it for carbon sequestering. I mean it’s just an incredible nuisance otherwise.

          That’s a good idea, then we invest in our future with oil.

          That would require a massive and expensive effort, no chance that bill would pass regardless of the jobs it would create.

            I think that would make coal. Oil is made by algal anr plankton blooms, which we are also making.

            Both also need heat, pressure, and time to form, so synthetic carbon products are certainly chearper.

        English ivy may grow better in Kentucky soil than Kent chalk, but I’m not familiar with that in the way I am kudzu.
