I have this great invention, its called a "tree." It is so amazing, it breathes in Co2 and breathes out Oxygen! Its so high-tech that it "self-replicates" which means that all by itself it will create seeds and drop them, and they will in turn grow into NEW TREES!
I'm a genius!! Do you think I can win the $25 Million?

Trouble with trees is that they do not keep the CO2 long enough. The tree takes CO2 from the air, separates it into C and O, releases the O into the air and incorporates the C into its wood. Later, maybe hundreds, but not thousands, of years, when the tree dies of old age, the wood rots and the C combines with O from the air and releases CO2 back into the air. For permanent removal you need something more like coral, which makes the CO2 into limestone which keeps the CO2 trapped for millions of years.

I doubt it, I believe that he wants a machine that reproduces higher results. The question is, what will this machine use for energy, and how much of the pollution the energy source provides will the machine absorb?
All green plants do the same thing. More plants, less urban sprawl would help. We could build down, as well as up to keep more open land for growing plants. If people would cultivate more plants in their homes, that would help.

It doesn't have to be an invention...it can be a method. I have the patent on the METHOD of producing new trees. My method is called SEED (Soak up Earth Exhaust & Debris).

As I've said on another thread in the earth science section, God is the only person entitled to this prize as he invented green plants.

If only people would understand the worth of these creatures.Because a tree is like me and you it lives and we have a common mission,save ourselves....but if people continue to think like you that they`re things ....well...others will cut them off!
