To say nothing of young trees sucking in CO2 like teenage boys cleaning out the refrigerator. Cut more trees, mill lumber, build stuff and sequester more carbon!

Actually, the thing to do that would remove the most carbon is to ban computers and go back to doing everything by paper forms. And of course, ban any recycling of paper.

Using more lumber isn't bad either, but tree-derived paper would use FAR more tonnage of carbon extracted from the atmosphere.

Yep, young trees gobble up carbon like crazy...

“old growth” trees? Not so much, and some are actually giving off more co2 than they are “eating”.
