> A global reforestation project is how we fix climate change It isn't. Besides being inadequate even on its own terms, creating large and flammable forests in a time of increasing droughts is just going to lead to megafires, which will instantly eliminate all gains from years of forestation. We should still plant trees. There's no real downside to doing so except the cost. But you absolutely cannot count on flammable forests locking up carbon forever. Forests burn, they get cut down for firewood, bad things happen to them. Tree-planting is, like, 1% of what needs to be done, not 90%. It's a 1% solution.
