A guy in California sued his neighbor to cut down his redwoods. The trees were blocking his solar panels. How much carbon do you suppose those giants would absorb/fix over their 1000 year lifespans relative to what the solar panels would displace before they’re scrapped as obsolete technology and sent to a landfill? Is this the first time ever an environmentalist has sued to cut trees down? The solar guy won. The trees must come down. What a silly world.
