LOL!!!!!

What they don’t mention is it will take 60 YEARS of tree growth to offset the trip!!!

“matured tree that is planted in the tropics typically offsets 50 pounds a year “

These people are insane. Ever read a book called “Trees”? Don’t know if you can still get a copy. The people that lived back then will tell you of the true depression living under trees.

Not only that, but just about any place in Canada where you might replant trees would have eventually regrown tree cover anyway, given time.

Especially in this tree friendly, CO2 rich environment.

If they don’t plant another 1176 trees for Zero’s return trip, does that mean he won’t get to come back?
