Lots of people want to see more “hope” and less “doom” about climate change. But a new facility to suck carbon out of the air shows why it’s more complicated than that.
Trees are sadly inefficient for the scales we need. I’m not saying we should cut down more trees or stop planting them, but it will take much more than that to get us out of the hole we’ve dug ourselves into.
Trees are pretty good at carbon capture :)
