Don’t get me wrong — I wasn’t saying it’s a good idea. But absent any fancy technology it’s not entirely impossible to plant fast growing trees, harvest them, and then bury them in a mine or at the bottom of a hypoxic body of water.

It would certainly have to be a global, multi-generational undertaking. But it looks like that’s going to be the case with every other solution as well.
