Canada’s CO2 emissions total 1.28 trillion pounds annually. With 318 billion trees in Canada, each absorbing 50 pounds of CO2 per year, the country’s trees collectively absorb 15.9 trillion pounds of CO2 annually. This makes Canada strongly carbon negative.
So, a question for Canadians: Why do you elect leaders who seem unaware of these facts? Why don’t you challenge them, and even more perplexing, why do you accept and re-elect them? You criticize Donald Trump, yet you support leaders who push policies that make little sense for Canada, given its carbon-negative status.
Here in the U.S., greenhouse gas emissions amount to 6,343 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalents, or roughly 14.0 trillion pounds. With an estimated 300 billion trees, each absorbing 50 pounds of CO2 annually ( 15 trillion pounds), the U.S. is already carbon neutral and arguably negative. If you’re concerned about CO2—which is arguably an irrational fear to begin with—it’s even more illogical to advocate for policies in your own country that don’t align with your stated environmental goals since they are already accomplished. The facts suggest this agenda isn’t about the environment but rather about undermining capitalism and freedom.
