darryl mcmahonCOP25 showed that international leaders are hot as hell bent on business as usual. It takes about 700 trees to offset the CO2 of one OECD person so 1 million trees is only enough for 1400 OECD units of people (OUOP), but it's a start. The surviving 3 trillion trees on earth only offsets 4.4 billion OUOP. This is short by 3.6 billion people if everyone today were to reach OECD comfort without destroying the earth's Goldilocks climate which is only just hanging on now but heading for a catastrophe. So the earth needs an extra (3.6/4.4)*3 = 2.5 trillion trees. The problem is recent research says only 1 trillion extra trees is viable. Anyway trees take years to grow. Only decarbonization by releasing much less of all that ancient solar energy stored by algae and plants over 100 million years ago can save us. The brand new solar energy we get for free without trillions of dollars a year in exploration, extraction and refining is well within existing technical capability.6y
