I can't wait until they makes these no cost, low-maintenance, and self-replacing. Oh man, just think of how easy it would be to fix our climate issues!

I mean, this may get downvoted, but trees are just trying to live, not fix the climate. They are a very real part of the solution, but I’m fine with considering ‘supplements’.

Sometimes the enemy of the good is the perfect.

My question is, wouldn't the power needed to run these negate the benefits they bring?

This is also ignoring the gross notion that these can make money so they're more worthy than trees when considering solutions.

What you're missing is they use the carbon to push out more oil from the ground. That's where the profit is.
