"... if we want to solve this problem, planting trees is not enough."

We have basalt in Aotearoa, right? Maybe we need to be importing tech from Iceland for more than just geothermal electricity generation?

But I agree with everyone else you say there. There are a multitude of things we could be doing that the neither NatACT First nor the Hipkins clownshow are likely to support.

Climate Change: The latest inventory

Ministry for the Environment has released New Zealand's Greenhouse Gas Inventory 1990–2024 , which has updated emissions figures. The bad ne...

Direct Air Capture (DAC) and Carbon Sequestration are redefining #ClimateTech.

Instead of just reducing emissions, we can now remove CO2 directly from the atmosphere using advanced #CarbonRemovalTechnology.

A key step toward achieving #NetZero emissions and building scalable #SustainableTechnology solutions.

Fruit trees turn marginal farms into carbon sinks and cash machines

Study finds fruit-based agroforestry can store vast carbon while boosting farmer incomes nearly 5X conventional cropping.

More biochar info
Seems very sensible info, mentions using it for long term carbon storage at the end.

Vasit Sagan and Derek Tesser from Saint Louis University are making strides in mapping cattle emissions globally through the Climate TRACE coalition. Their work focuses on tracking methane and nitrous oxide from livestock operations, highlighting both challenges and opportunities for #MethaneReduction and #CarbonSequestration. https://climatetrace.org/news/saint-louis-university-s-vasit-sagan-and-derek-tesser-on-mapping-cattle-emissions
Saint Louis University’s Vasit Sagan and Derek Tesser on mapping cattle emissions

We recently talked with Vasit Sagan, PhD, Professor of Geospatial Science and Computer Science, Associate Vice President for Geospatial Science, and Derek S. Tesser, PhD, Senior Research Scientist, both at Saint Louis University’s Remote Sensing Lab, whose research is powering Climate TRACE’s cattle emissions data.

A ‘shocking’ carbon discovery in Sweden’s forests

A new study finds old-growth forests in Sweden store far more carbon than the industrial tree plantations that are rapidly replacing them, with soil accounting for most of the difference. Protecting undisturbed areas could do more to mitigate climate change than previously thought.

Ok, I'll play!
1. I see more Larch than Spruce.
2. Like it or not, spruce is our best bet for construction timber & the long term #CarbonSequestration this provides; & replaces more #CarbonIntensive building materials.
3. The real issue isn't Sitka spruce per se, but our #SilviculturalPractice
Ask why not #regenerate &/or replant the vast areas of #Scotland's currently denuded, depleted #BarrenWastelands of sheep & shooting estates? #RightTreeRightPlaceRightReason

"In the 90s we had the mahogany boom ... and you almost can't find a mahogany tree in the [Amazon] jungle anymore. And if you want to talk about carbon sequestration in the rainforest, the ancient hardwoods hold like 60% of the carbon of the whole rainforest."

In Aotearoa that's kauri, rimu, totara and kahikatea.
