I really hate seeing that article going around about the grift of planting trees as carbon offsets. Yes, the grift is real and planting trees with that intention is disingenuous.

But KEEP PLANTING TREES ANYWAY. So many trees in my area have been cut down for often very little reason. We're losing shade, root structures, ecosystems.

I worry that these types of headlines enforce a belief that there is only one perfect solution and nothing else is worth doing.
