Few things, maybe the way to farm trees is naive and can be done in better ways. Just entice companies to have different ways of working (even if they raise the price a little afterwards)

Also petroleum being a big factor in CO2 levels it's hard to not put it first isn't it ?



A side benefit of burning the petroleum is trees do grow much faster and bigger.

Somehow there is a synergy here we haven’t quite accessed.

Burn petroleum => release CO2 => tree grows, sequesters CO2 => use tree for something that doesn’t burn it or compost it …

I feel like we are on the edge of figuring this out.
