Or if instead of planting trees to combat CO2, we genetically engineer some rapidly growing plant and then bury it in the ground so that it doesn't just release it back into the air? Bamboo grows way faster than a tree, don't know why we got stuck on trees

Pretty dumb idea but it's better than the Mr. Beast solution where we just indiscriminately plant trees because trees good, physics be damned

well, trees do more than just capture co2, they provide substructure for other life forms
