I'd assume growing trees would sequester far more carbon than mature trees? Grow, chop, grow perhaps?

- ouid 7y agoI think this is a naive view. First, there isn't a shortage of land for planting trees. And land is a requirement for storing the sequestered trees anyway. The most cost effective path to fixing more carbon is to plant right, and without cutting.
- madhadron 7y agoData shows the opposite. Mature trees are more efficient at sequestration.
