Trees alone are not anywhere near enough to lower CO~2~ levels lol

Until emissions peak it is only going to get worse. Planting trees is a joke solution made up by unserious people who just want to appear like they're doing something and don't want to actually solve the problem.

Ahh, right... Perfection only, progress is ridiculous. Might as well just give the money to the US military then, which is far and away the biggest single contributor to the climate crisis.
