        Congrats. You should support new technology but you need to take another look at forestry. Buy some land and plant trees. This will also create rural economic activity. Verification is not difficult with @Treemetrics

        Humanity needs wood for shelter and heat. Concrete contributs 8% of the planets carbon emissions. We can use more wood in construction to lock up the carbon and create more sustainable product. Take a look at your offices, probably concrete!

        Great solution for short term. I like the idea of buying up land and planting trees (that are maintained/looked after) on it that will naturally transmute the carbon in the atmosphere http://target2030.org  - is Stripe also going to look into planting trees?

        That's because it's incredibly difficult to build in San Francisco thanks to regressive zoning laws and red tape.

        @patrickc I'm the CoS at @Opus12CO2 -- just sent your enviro team a message so we can talk about recycling that air captured CO2 into materials/fuels that are conventionally produced from petroleum. Get the dual benefit of drawing down CO2 and displacing oil as a feedstock.

        @coolearth is doing effective work in protecting rainforests for $1,34 per tonne of CO2. “Cool Earth is the most cost-effective charity we have identified to date which works on mitigating climate change through direct action”https://www.givingwhatwecan.org/report/cool-earth/ …

        I like Cool Earth, but I think there is some recent doubt on whether that article is accurate on cost effectiveness.https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/RnmZ62kuuC8XzeTBq/why-we-have-over-rated-cool-earth …
