The Iconic Car

Little did I know I was sitting on a green gold mine. While not really green its red and not really "green" in the other sense either as it uses a 3.2 litre combustion engine that spews carbon emissions like a lactose intolerant jersey cow on a high fibre and icecream diet. But I will get to my point.

65 Million years ago

Without hydro electric damns, windmills or nuclear power the prehistoric creatures depended on the sun for as the main source for their energy needs.
Either by being plants (that harness the sun's energy and fix carbon into energy storing molecules), or by eating plants, or eating creatures that eat plants. these creatures took from the bountiful sun a lot of energy.

Here is how I am going to fix energy and carbon for the creatures

who will see me as a dinosaur.
First I will plant a tree.

The ultimate solar power generator. As it not only takes up solar energy helping to cool the earth. It removes the greehouses gases produced by my solar car.

Then I will let the tree grow

As the tree grows it will absorb carbon and energy from the sun.
the ultimate Solar panel.

Everyone should plant a bunch so the next dominant species on earth will have enough stored energy to drive a Hummer.

Then I will bury the tree

Although this will probably happen long after I am gone. The tree will die and be turned into very rich organic soil or better yet it will just be buried by sand along with millions and billions of others like it.

After Millions of years

And being buried by a continental shelf or two the trees we plant today will be the "solar power" of tomorrow. It takes a lot of heat pressure and time to convert solar power into crude oil but in geological time it but a minute.

Where I put the solar power in my car

Luckily for me the Earth's past was filled with prehistoric creatures willing to save their solar power for me. Now we just pump that solar power from the ground. Do some distilling to get rid of any substances not suitable for solar use in my car then transport it to local solar distribution centers. these are commonly called gas stations. And I have a solar power injection port on my car that leads to the solar storage tank.

That in turn lets me drive where I want to go when I want to go.

THANK YOU PREHISTORIC CREATURES FOR SAVING ALL THIS SOLAR ENERGY FOR ME TO USE. I appreciate it.
