Here's further support for planting trees. Published by the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies:
"Planting 1.2 Trillion Trees Could Cancel Out a Decade of CO2 Emissions, Scientists Find"
I'll expand on what I said before: Make front lawns illegal throughout the US. Require two or more trees to be planted (use some kind of a formula for the exact amount). We can probably get to half a billion trees just with this approach. However, this has the added effect of eliminating emissions from gas powered mowers, blowers, trimmers, etc. We would consumer less water to grow lawns, capture CO2 effectively to grow trees and reduce emissions from the aforementioned demonic devices in the process. I call that a good start until we figure out other methods that might operate at scale without destroying the planet in the process. Actually, there are at least a couple more things at scale we could do that would be net positive on many fronts. More on that later.
