Kind of low-hanging fruit, since it's the cursed orange website, and even they will soon vote it down to the negatives, but it was such a fresh flavor of unhinged that I had to share it.

Let's count trees per capita.
Planting more trees is commonly regarded by leftists/communists/morons and "science" people (that don't know a method from a hole in the ground) as a dumbass solution.
If you want to reduce carbon dioxide in the air, it's simple. Plant more. Why dipshits from the left are against planting trees and carbon sinks shows me they only care about politics.
Desertification isn't climate change, and tree planting can help. Planting trees to temporarily contain some carbon before they die and release it back into the atmosphere does not undo releasing carbon that was previously sequestered in a coal bed.
Can't we then cut down the trees, then make houses or throw them in a deep lake?
You can, wood products are a carbon sink.
We could start using wooden boxes instead of plastic for cheap disposable packaging, start building wooden skyscrapers, etc. It's a neat vibe, I like it. But it wouldn't put a dent in just how much wood we'd end up producing if we were trying to mitigate climate change with wood strats.
Yes, but now you're factory farming trees and requiring petrolium fertilizilers to counter the long-term soil depletion and runoff from planned deforestation events.
There's lots of good reasons to (re)plant forests to help slow climate change, but carbon storage is mostly a nice side bonus.
