Just deforest the land and dump the logs onto the North/South Pole, reforest, and repeat. No radiation necessary.

I have read a similar proposal that you can just drop biomass into deep oceanic trenches. The cold, pressure, etc mean that decomposition is significantly slower than would happen on the surface.

“Just” move a zillion tons of wood halfway across the earth.

Wood floats the same way rocks don't. It's not an energy problem, it's a time problem.

That model only works in an ocean without currents, or with exclusively favorable currents. The weaker claim of, "we can expend minimal energy by taking a very long time to get there," perhaps even wind energy, might work though. I think we'd have to answer that empirically.

Wood floats, so that doesn't sound impossible.
