To clarify:
The image at the top is largely correct. As long as trees are alive, normally at least many decades, they absorb CO2 from the atmosphere and store it as hydrocarbons that, upon their death, are rereleased as they are eaten, burned, or decomposed. In the case of lumber, these are socked away for long periods of time. All this may not appear as a blessing until it’s understood that buying ourselves time enables our scientific community to develop solutions to the problems that confront us vis-à-vis the rising concentrations of CO2 in our atmosphere.
The image at the bottom is simply mislabeled. It’s not a “psychologic delusion.” It’s a scam.
There are people who believe that our national problems stem from Hillary Clinton (never president) and Barack Obama (twice president and ranked #7 by historians).
These people are called idiots.
