Carbon sinks? Dude, people are planting trees in cities for the shade.

There’s a quote about planting trees and not living to see their shade

I’m a bit more pessimistic of people plus with smog cover how often will they need shade?

I promise you we have better space than city sidewalks for carbon sinks.
