Catches the reader, and promises interesting things to come. Frankly, the "guide stones" are boring, just a bunch of calcium carbonate, unless set into a context where they are significant somehow. I like the flashback technique to show how today's actions relate to one potential outcome. Building new sprawled homes is not good; but for those that already exist, conversion to solar power, native plants, graywater and community living, edible landscape and backyard habitat, is not a bad thing. I'd like to see a satire of the ultimate 'oil culture' where huge atomic plants produce enough energy to decompose CO2 from the air into burnable hydrocarbons (HxCx) -- thus bypassing photosynthesis -- and really "recycling" the carbon. What a Rube Goldberg machine it would be! It could be done, but doing so would expose how stupid. Carbon sequestration, as you point out, is laughable. This piece is also very painful to read, probably because it speaks the truth. This is really good; your talent for sound-bytes is really the ability to come up with one good zinger per paragraph.
