The article concludes:
It also reinforces reality that the only way to reliably make our climate safe for wildlife and humans alike is to start rapidly reducing carbon emissions. And we better get started soon.
I agree that addressing carbon (cause) is better than addressing temperature (symptom). But the conclusion as stated is incorrect, because what needs reduction is net carbon emission, not carbon emission. Rapidly increasing carbon capture is equivalent to rapidly reducing carbon emission.
For an example of geoengineering addressing carbon instead of temperature, see https://projectvesta.org/ https://projectvesta.org/
