Weapons-grade whataboutism. Dude no fucking shit. What's that? The trees planted along the railway died because nobody watered them? SAY IT ISN'T SO JOE. ORLY. The argument made in the title is "planting trees alone will not stop global warming." The argument made in the article is "we can't plant any old trees anywhere we want." Thanks, genius. Really appreciate what you're bringing to the discussion, FT.Unfortunately, the reality is more complex.
Trees undoubtedly play a role in fighting climate change, but they have to be deployed smartly.
