- samatman 6y agoThe point is that birth and murder do not offset each other while removing CO2 from the atmosphere and then returning it does. This is not hard to understand, unless you're motivated to misunderstand it for some reason.
- einpoklum 6y agoNot, the removal and the addition don't offset each other - in the sense that someone _else_ emitting some CO2 and you planting a tree don't offset each other. The contribution to CO2 sums up to zero (or not exactly zero but nevermind) - but the _actions_ don't offset each other.
