That will probably require the appointment of a czar and a special committee to figure out how many billions it will cost to drill holes into the earth for the purpose of sequestering the dangerous gases. But the bright side of the problem is that probably thousands of green jobs can be created, not only to manufacture the bags, but to oversee the program, transport all the stuff, and manage the sequestering projects. Obviously, locals will not take kindly to having it done in their backyard, so townhall meetings by the thousands will be required, but only after the Department of Energy or some other department does all the studies, along with environmental impact statementes for each site considered. I can predict what could happen, the best sites may end up in Utah, Nevada, or New Mexico, but like the spent nuclear fuel problem, there will always be enough save the spotted desert mouse groups to head off the actual implementation of the sequestering program. So we will probably all have to end up with enduring the stench of the gases that will probably ultimately escape before they are taken care of properly, but we won't know the difference, because we are already suffering from the stench being emitted by Washington anyway.
