Comment Comment by kisamoto There's a few "plant trees" or "terraform the sahara" comments in here.For some context, if we planted trees wherever we could around the world we can only undo a decades worth of emissions[0].Not only that but it would still take a century for the trees to reach maturity.Our use of technology threw nature out of balance and we need to use technology to get the balance back again.[0] https://science.sciencemag.org/content/366/6463/eaaz0388.ful... parent kisamoto 5 years ago

Our use of technology threw nature out of balance and we need to use technology to get the balance back again.
