And it's futile if we don't start removing C02 from the atmosphere. I'd rather bet on C02 removal than anything else.

(Side note: it's CO2, carbon+(oxide×2), not C zero two)

It's not futile if we don't remove atmospheric CO2, but we would have to get to net zero warming without cheating and we would have to get there within our emission budget to stay below <insert your temperature target>.
