    Carbon offsets are misunderstood. They are helpful, but they aren't super tangible, so as good as they are, they also are not removing carbon from the atmosphere

    Land Sinks are super important for the future in dealing with climate change. They will sequester a lot of carbon, and help prevent global warming. Land sinks should be used in association with farming and agriculture.
