How about feeding these swamps sewage and killing two birds with one stone. Too bad we are so 'against' GMOs, they could probably come up with a weed that would do the job faster than we now do it and even make an industry out of it. how about growing hemp in the swamps (no, not dope silly!) and using the fiber for paper. You could kill another bird with that same stone, by saving the forests! Seems to me, we have been thoughtless and in some cases down right stupid about moving into the 21st Century. Being bogged down in tradition is comfortable, but not always the most profitable way to live! we must change the hemp laws, for example, or face a bleak future importing fiber from China. America is about Change - and Change is coming! Be part of the road paver, or be part of the road, your call! Growing your own swamps seems like a good way to capture CO2.
