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.
It’s not just about carbon storage, it’s about land use. Are we really going anti tree here? I don’t understand this argument
It depends. Planting trees to protect against erosion and revert desertification can be great. Restoring habitats is also good. In the economic sector planting trees gives us a more sustainable source of lumber than cutting down wild forests. Trees beautify urban environments and provide natural cooling.
Trees are cool but you need to do a lot more than planting them to save the world.
The commenter being dunked on here does seem to think that trees would function as carbon storage.
My objections aren't with planting more trees, it's with the fact that "plant more trees" has become the catch all solution by greenwashing capitalists so they can pretend they care about the environment as continue to destroy the global ecosystem.
