My time horizon is "Do we have enough trees sucking carbon out of the air before we cross the point of no return?" and "Can we plant enough trees before we lose all the coastal property?"
- nsxwolf 10y agoWe may lose current coastal property - but it will be replaced with all new coastal property. At a terrible cost, yes.
- mathattack 10y agoThat's it - it's not the property, it's the mass displacement and abandonment of cities.
