When Sheamus heard that some of his neighbours were thinking about setting up a car pool, he thought he would just go ahead and set it up for them.

Professor Hugh Brain's colleagues knew he was eccentric, but even they thought trying to teach dolphins to drive was a touch over the top.

Professor Wally Whacko explained "you see, by making sure vehicle exhausts always exit underwater the CO2 is absobed by the water and does not enter the atmosphere, this method even allows for leaks in the exhaust system".

Professor Norman Nutslack explained "By getting folks to drive with the engine and exhaust substantially submerged we will raise average sea temperature by about 1.79856784763524 degrees by the year 2017. This will increase algae production to the point it will easily feed everybody on the planet".

The problem of diesel particulate entering the atmosphere has now been solved completely.
