> Suppose all of the world’s cement plant operators agreed to offset their emissions this way. Suppose that this succeeds so well that 100% of the world’s remaining rainforests are protected forever. We’re still nowhere near net zero!
This is true, but as a side effect you've saved the rainforests, which would be amazing!
Maybe we shouldn't judge the worth of a carbon offets scheme solely by carbon emissions? It can be kind of dubious and still have good side effects.
