EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something to add.

    You said we need 5 billion acres but that is more than all the present space used to grow crops worldwide. It’s hard to imagine how you think this is possible

      I may have remembered the total off by a factor it may only be 5,000,000 like I said I did the math a while ago, it came out to roughly 1.5 times the areble land of the US, which is why I said we would need everyone to do it. Also it’s still useful in smaller amounts, just makes the carbon capture take longer than 10 years. I wanted something that we could implement last year, and would fix this shit by 2032.

      Trees are too slow to make any meaningful change in the next decade.
