Settled Science?! Trees both cause & solve ‘global warming’?! – GOP climate pandering seeks to plant billions of trees

GOP climate bill will seek to commit US to planting 3.3 billion trees annually

Plant or not plant trees to fight "global warming?! It's all so confusing! This is what the (allegedly) settled science says:

CBS News: Planting a trillion trees could be the "most effective solution" to climate change, 2018 study says -

Christian Science Monitor: Why planting some trees could make global warming worse - 2016

Live Science: Want to Fight Climate Change? Plant 1 Trillion Trees - 2019

Discover Mag: We Can’t Just Plant Billions of Trees to Stop Climate Change - 2019

AP: Best way to fight climate change? Plant a trillion trees - 2019

Climate News Network: Planting trees will not slow global warming - 2017

Update: BBC: Climate change: Planting new forests ‘can do more harm than good’

Update 2021: Cut down more trees to save Earth from ‘global warming?! DEFORESTATION COULD BE COOLING THE PLANET DOWN, SAY SCIENTISTS

Tree planting proposal & consequences Round up

NYT reveals how Trump administration was duped into promoting planting trees as a climate ‘solution’ – Meanwhile, even UN IPCC and journal Nature ‘find that global-scale deforestation has a net cooling influence on Earth’s climate’ –

Nature study except: “We find that global-scale deforestation has a net cooling influence on Earth’s climate, because the warming carbon-cycle effects of deforestation are overwhelmed by the net cooling associated with changes in albedo and evapotranspiration.“

If the GOP planted a billion trees, I'm sure the Democrats would give each tree a name, an address and an absentee ballot.

Trees sequester carbon.   

So do new coral reefs.

Sequestered carbon reduces CO2 in the air, which would have the negligible effect of slightly reducing temperatures.

Better to ask which multinational corporation has bought the GOP to promote the bill and how they are going to make money off these new saps...saplings.

Looks like the RINOs are trolling for some moronic moderates of the Gaia Cult to replace the 74.95 million American Trump voters that don't like the RINOs.
The GOP is not the party leadership.  The GOP is the party MEMBERSHIP.   The members need to kick the leaders out if they leaders are going the wrong way.  No coddling allowed.

Our country can't stop being insane. Just making the point.  Carlin makes the other point. "The planet isn't going anywhere, we are! "
