do you have a source for this? seems hard to believe since it takes about 5 minutes to plant a tree.

What if i told you there was already a machine that runs on solar, captures carbon with almost 0 cost and costs almost nothing to build. Its called a tree. Has anyone ever analyzed how much $ per ton of carbon capture this method would cost?
