Dome Cities to Save the Human Race

Dome Cities to Save the Human Race

39 lines

In the year 2030
After five years
Of ever worsening weather

Record heat waves after heat waves
Massive fires everywhere
Record hurricanes and typhoons

Mega flooding and mega droughts too
Tornados including fire tornado

Large parts of the world
Were experiencing Death Valley temperatures
The UN convened a global conference

With the vast majority of countries
Agreeing to set up emergency shelter
By creating domed cities
Covering the core downtown areas

Ex-urban areas would be abandoned
Most of Florida would be abandoned
Most of the Desert Southwest as well.

The shelters would be built
Using nano construction technology
Developed in a laboratory with AI assistance
Creating the shelter domes with AI assistance

The tone of the meetings was positive
There was a new sense of harmony


There was a feeling that building these shelters
Along with transitioning to a green energy environment
Was the last chance to save the human race

The social conservatives in the U.S.
And elsewhere realized
That they had no choice
But to join in the new consensus

Even the big energy companies vowed
To join in the efforts to save humanity
For a profit of course
