We've already spent trillions of dollars on "climate change", with no perceptible effect. China and India are the major CO2 polluters, and we have no control over their activities.

Plants are already doing "large-scale removals of carbon dioxide". Other than plants, there is no cost-effective, practical technology for doing that. By the way, the beneficial effects of higher CO2 concentrations, which are NEVER discussed by the alarmists, include much improved plant growth. The overall greening of formerly barren regions is also happening due to increased CO2.

The way forward is to continue to evaluate the actual effects of current CO2 concentrations, which are not known precisely, while also pushing very hard to develop new technologies that will allow humanity to thrive both here on Earth, and throughout the Solar System.

Improved technologies, such as electric vehicles and next-gen nuclear power, will naturally and relatively quickly reduce human CO2 output.
