Oxygen

I had an epiphany on my train ride to work. I was standing there waiting to board and smelling all the horrible exhaust and thought about all the new technologies with cars. So here's my thoughts. Currently cars have carbon dioxide exhaust and it's bad and hurts the ozone. They are starting to build hybrid cars that produce less exhaust, but it's still there. There are also hydrogen powered cars that only produce water. This is good, but not still there.

Here's my thought. We should build a car that uses carbon dioxide and only produces oxygen. We know it's possible because plants do it, right? This way, we can accomplish many things. First of all these machines would basically eat up all the crap that we've put in the air and help clean the ozone much faster than all the forests have done. And you that casinos pump extra oxygen into their lobbies in order to make people more alert and happy right? Well, this is the same thing. In rush hour traffic while everyone is stuck in one place, they can just open their windows get a little extra oxygen and be happy together. It should drastically cut down on road rage. And don't worry about then putting too much oxygen in the air and hurting the plant population. First of all, we've cut down on their population anyhow, so we're helping all the little animals. But mostly, we can keep some of the old cars that produce CO2 and together we have built our own self balanced ecosystem. The cars basically feed off each other and all we provide are the engines and radios.

So engineers, go at it!!

My genius surprises me sometimes. ;)
