  I hope they plant some fruit trees. Why not feed people why you are at it?

    We already have tons of trees: https://8billiontrees.com/trees/how-many-trees-are-in-the-united-states/

    If we were going to increase our carbon output, though, planting more trees could be helpful, since trees (and other plants) breathe in carbon and breathe out oxygen

      Who doesn’t love to walk under trees?
