Need to balance it by taking out. Trees and algae are doing this. The solution is not green energy or going EVs. The solution already proven very effective and on mass scaleable...it is called ocean iron fertilization. Unfortunately, governments NOT interested in doing that. CO2 is a new source of laws to control masses and taxations. Iron fertilizations method is so successful that governments worldwide band together to discredit and even send in law enforcers to raid the scientists office. Majority academia (I know this first hand in 13 universities western world) have government people visiting and warning deans not to expand this method or even publish anything on it. If iron fertilizations can solve the co2 issue in a year, there is no money in it or enough issues to keep politicians stay elected. Nothing to see. Stick to your EVs, lithium batteries, carbon tax, and non-straw coffee.

"We fucked up the air globally in <50y, lets fuck up the ocean faster to un-fuck the air issue temporarily".

But seriously, we lack the understanding to do local geo-engineering, much less at global scale. Hard pass.

Reducing CO2 emissions by going green and EVs (and not just EV cars), and removing CO2, is a longer but much more controllable and stable approach. I just wish we had better battery technology already, but we spent the last 100y deluding ourselves that a finite non-renewable energy source, that messed up our only biosphere, was the only course of action.
