Yeah, the actual permanent solution would have been to not unearth all that fossil fuel in the first place. The second-best solution is to bind it in trees.

We could try cutting down trees and burying them underground without (much) oxygen. But just having more trees alive at a time is a lot less effort.

Burying it does what? It still decays and releases the co2 eventually. All you would be doing is making it future generations problem, like what we’ve always been doing, so maybe we need to do so thing different…?

Do you not think that’s been thought of and deemed not viable?
