We need to build an Yggdrasil - eviltoast

I’m sure we’ve got the technology somewhere. We just need like a giant fucking tree to suck the carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and to desalinate the oceans. Something that’s the size of an island all by itself.

I don’t care if it’s 100 billion trees woven together with some science fuckery, but we need an Yggsrasil if we want to fix the planet.

Think about it. A giant tree out in the middle of the ocean that sucks up all of our carbon dioxide and turns it into more trees and that sucks the salts and minerals and plastics out of the ocean and incorporates those into itself until it grows as tall as 100 billion trees woven together with dark science can possibly grow.

Sure, it’ll cost I don’t know several billion dollars to make this happen a trillion I don’t fucking know, but if we had that the world would get better.

    Sadly, our planet only makes life sustainable, there’s absolutely no money to make for the shareholders, so there’s little to no chance in hell that the powers that be are going to make any effort to prevent our planet going to shit. Remember: Life is temporary, short term gains are eternal
