Why not direct the money to the planting of trees?

[jackdeansmith]

Trees eventually rot or burn, carbon stored in the biosphere can be a useful "capacitor" for reducing atmospheric carbon, but in the long run we really need to put it back in the geosphere where we got it from.

Rotting trees (and the leaves they drop) add carbon to the ground, creating organic soil.

We won't fix this climate catastrophe by placing all of the eggs in one basket.

[markkat]

I agree.
