Been reading about accelerating destruction in the Amazon. A chunk the size of Rhode Island or larger burns down each year. This malpractice yields rich farmland that’s productive for about four or five years. After that, the soil turns into dust and sand. 
Carports for farmers, then, are an interim step. Dust when it rains becomes haze and steam, the color of moist illusion, bubble-like.
