NO SHIT! How many trees does it take to absorb 1 ton of CO2?? So simple!OMG!
If you want to absorb carbon dioxide, plant a tree.
All the other plans in this thread are an expensive waste of money and energy
and they'll lower our standard of living even more than the typical green idiocy.
How Much Carbon Does 1 Acre Tree Absorb? One acre of forest can absorb 4.5 to 40.7 tons of carbon dioxide and produce four tons of oxygen.

for $660,000,000,000 but idiots like you that support EVs are so uninformed you forget ...EVs use electricity! I know DUH!
But where will all that electricity that the EPA's 60% of new cars being EVs (they forgot to mention Trucks!) going to come from?
The cost of building additional 13,227 plants or $9,952,973,292,637,000 JUST to provide the 3,024,821,191,633 kWh of electricity for the 60% new cars(and I've included Trucks as the attached shows) .
So talk about waste of MONEY? Why hasn't ANYONE seemingly understand...
- EVs run on electricity. You agree?
- Average truck EV uses 1.89 kWh per mile.
- Average trucks below use anywhere from 12,000 to 63,000 miles per year per truck.
- An AVERAGE additional 3,024,821,191,633 kWh or more will be needed added to the current power plant generations of 4.12 Trillion kWh.
- HENCE an additional $6.049 quadrillion to as much as $9.9 quadrillion will have to be spent to build the additional 8,040 to 13,227 plants!
