Sadly the amount of CO2 in our atmosphere even if we stopped polluting today. Will still bring about huge negative effects down the road. We need to decarbonize our society(listed first because it’s the first priority) AND remove CO2. Source & a great read: https://www.orbuch.com/carbon-removal/

If you want to learn about carbon dioxide removal check out AirMiners: https://bootup.airminers.org/ they have a useful self paced curriculum

We do, but right now we have to start somewhere. It'll take less energy and effort and production resources to reduce emissions than capture the same amount.

Once we get closer to zero emissions it makes more sense to think about capture IMO.

Edit: oh wait I think you are saying the same as you mention reduction is first priority, sorry.
