Research indicates that managed by people of the are net sinks. That not managed by indigenous peoples are net carbon sources.

I have a hunch that, from a systems point of...

...of view, any such prospective change (#e.g. #reforestation) will involve a #ChaoticSystem. These are sensitively dependent on initial conditions, something better known as the #ButterflyEffect.

So, as your example shows, by trying to "fix" the #climate we might actually be making things even worse.

It'd be interesting to know how confident the scientists are in their models.

The biggest funders & marketers of as a goal are actually & corporations. They know telling ppl they'll plant a ton of trees or lying about cleanups helps their laundry.

You're dumb ASF to believe it. You can plant 50 million trees - most won't survive. Ancient have essential to planetary survival for all living beings. Abandoned wells poison, still.
