Um. Can’t they just plant, more plants?
Seems pretty simple. Rather than some hi-tech approach which just removes CO2 and stores it.
Plants.
All of you were making great points.
Planting more plants/trees is certainly a desirable solution.
This mineral can be used to absorb just some of the “excess” CO2.
But this is vastly preferable to shutting down entire industries in the name of fighting global warming.
Too easy. Too inexpensive. Too useful.
Plus plants also create O2 which is useful to animals and humans, so that will interfere with their population reduction fantasies.
Trees ...
Yep, foliage removes more CO2 and does it faster than any other means. Since it is part of the earth’s own natural buffer system, we are not screwing around with mother nature in ways we know nothing about and might create a whole new slew of man-made problems.
CO2 is not a pollutant, it is plant food. Only a radical, communist, New World Order control freak could be worried about a natural plant food, and use it to try to destroy America’s economy.
“Can’t they just plant, more plants?”
I’ve wondered that for a long time.
Actually, more CO2 in the atmosphere makes plants grow more, which takes out CO2.
