The best thing we can do for the earth is take a lot of the money being spent and plant tons of trees, then use the wood as co2 storage in the form of furniture

- frankbreetz 7y agoIsn't most furniture already made out of wood? I'd imagine if we made every single piece of furniture out of wood it wouldn't make a bit of difference. We need to make things out of wood that are not already made of wood, like skyscrapers and large buildings. If that's not enough we need to cut down trees and bury them so they don't decompose and then plant more. I think you are vastly underestimating the amount of carbon in the atmosphere that needs to be removed.
- galangalalgol 7y agoabout 5.5B tons of new wood furniture a year would be needed. That is 70tons of furniture for each person born in a year.
