I love this essay, but there is a questionable claim near the start. Most of our oxygen comes from the ocean (phytoplankton and other plants), not trees. We would physically survive the loss of terrestrial forests, though life might not be worth living. https://www.newsweek.com/how-much-oxygen-amazon-rain-forest-1456274 …pic.twitter.com/llPNPfmgIO
