It is almost impossible to plant enough trees to pay the impact of the climate of burning world fuel reserves. The offsetting of approximately 182 billion tons of carbon held by the reserves of the largest Fossil Foross companies with a lot of land with trees and central America.
The analysis, by Alain Naef In the ESSEC business school in France and his colleagues, the cost and vaabity of offset of carbon carbons from burning oil, gas and coal reserves held by the world’s largest 200 fossil fuel films around the world.
Researchers know that an area of more than 24.75 million square kilometers should be planted in new trees to beat the entire reserve of North America, central America and parts of South America together.
It is impractical to achieve reality, which requires transit to habitats, farms and other natural habitats.
“There is not enough land to be used for the level of verification necessary to overthrow fossil-related emes,” as Rich Collett-White to Energy Analysts to UK Carbon Tracker. “Chasing anywhere at the level of the levels of food rises – if Farmland is transferred to food deprivation elsewhere to meet the global needs of food.”
Meanwhile, the financial cost of such a plot of mass destruction can be harmful. The cost of planting wood is about $ 16 per ton of equivalent to the co₂ offset. At this price, the use of trees to overlook the emissions from fossil fuel fuel reserves to eliminate the total market value of 64 percent of the largest fossil fuel company, the team found. This does not include the cost of claiming the land.
If a higher carbon price is used, in order to determine the negative social and economic fossil combinations, the findings suggest all companies to be bankruptcy.
The NAEF and his companions recognized have a small moment of fossil fuel companies voluntary offset with emissions in their reserve. However, they say the work is an experimental mind to imitate that offsetting cannot be used to maintain business pollution operations. “Our important message from this paper is this oil and gas should remain on the ground,” Naef told a press briefing on 18 June.
Rayden Team In trillions of trees, a wooden group of wooden wooden plant, agree. “Plants plant not a replacement of rapid episodes – from fossil fuels and should not replace the action of discipline our economies,” he said.
