Beat the heat and be Green

All,
Wish to share a not so new idea , but worth serving as a courtesy reminder that we can beat the heat , by going green.
All you need to do is connect a pipe to the outlet of your air condition discharge and the other end to the roots of a say Sidra tree, which can grow naturally here.
You not only get free oxygen, but also it is a green way to act as a natural shade for your vehicles

Wouldn't Desal plants require power, which will deplete our fuel resources and also cause increased CO2 emissions ?

If all the countries in the world installed de-salination plants like Qatar then the effect of global warming - melting of the ice caps - will be resolved as we will just drink the excess water.

I am afraid, too much of oxygen is Ok for humans but it won't be good for 'Sidra' tree, because everybody knows that trees need CO2 for breathing.

If all of us go the Optimus way, then it will be suicidal for that tree itself ?

No no , I don't want to be selfish , God save me from this sin !

Are you saying that the 'colour of the shade' will be green ?

You want to increase sale of plastic pipes from tomorrow.

Please, tell the truth ?
