It’s not a « or » it’s a « and ».
We need to move toward 0 GHG emission as fast as possible, using the solutions you proposed among others. But even assuming the most optimistic transition plan, we are already too late, and too much GHG will already have been released to avoid significant negative impact. That is where carbon removal comes in. It can also help buy some limited amount of time for the transition.
I do not think any of the carbon removal startups that exist today are trying to scale to offset the entirety of our current annual footprint, they are building à complementary solution.
