> Humans release ~25 gigatons of carbon per year

~30% of which is from ongoing deforestation, unless the quoted ~25 gigatons is from fossil fuels only?

My understanding is that we’ve been net reforesting worldwide for the last few decades.

There are 200 gigatons of forest in the world. We net 8 gigatons each year. So in 25 years we will have no forest if all this is true. That conclusion is absurd.

Yeah, just through sheer arithmetic not all the parent comments can be right.
