This weekend I went to a brand new nature site in our area for wildlife observation and photography. It is a reclaimed toxic waste dump. They are doing a pretty good job of restoring it to pristine shape, HOWEVER, they still are having a few problems. Here is a picture I took of one of the finches there.

Makes you think, though, doesn't it? Wonder how in the world you could safely reclaim a toxic waste dump?

I say genetically engineer bacteria that will eat the toxic chemicals and break them down into harmless ones.
