Koch Habit, By Brian37 (AKA Brian Jame Rational Poet on FB and @brianrrs37 on twitter)
Sevante got it right
In 1896 He sounded the alarm
Too much CO2
Would cause the planet great harm
But the Barons of fossil fuel
Have been greedy and cruel
Put profits above the planet
Most governments they do rule
The lungs of our planet
In the Amazon
20 percent of our oxygen production
Soon to be gone
It is a Shell game
All about profit
Bullshit short term thinking
That will cost our entire planet
We had solar technology
As early as the 1920s
But the polluters
Bought up all the patents
And as a result
The weather more extreme
More floods, wild fires
And stronger hurricanes
More plastic in our oceans
Too much acid rain
Ocean levels rising
Coral reefs continually dying
Effecting food supplies
Flooding farmer's fields
On which
The world relies
I really want to hope
Really want to believe
My species is not so selfish
To accept the emergency we face
We have to do better
Those at the top
To put our planet first
Instead of mere profit.
(end)
Poem inspired by this guy.

And a Metallica song dealing with this very subject. I have to admit, although I liked the song when it first came out. I really did not understand the full impact and importance of it back then.
I wouldn't expect less from such a giant douchebag.

But he probably left a rather large bequest to the GOP....
Maybe even to the NRA..
