> If farmers increased silvopasture acreage from approximately 550 million hectares today to about 770 million hectares by 2050... carbon dioxide emissions could be reduced over those 30 years by up to 42 gigatons — more than enough to offset all of the carbon dioxide emitted by humans globally in 2015 This is both exciting and depressing. A massive effort and it still only offsets 1/30th of global emissions. Fixing climate is not going to be based in “profitability”, at least in any near term sense. It is about dramatically reducing our CO2-based economic activity to preserve the planet for future generations. Capitalism is not geared for that kind of calculation.
