One solution that I feel is regularly overlooked in these discussions is the establishment of kelp forests. Kelp grows at a far quicker rate than trees, requires no fresh water or land and has the added benefits of restoring marine ecosystems.

Kelp forests are also being worked on and are really interesting. As with all of these methods we have to make sure that creating an extraordinary amount of kelp and sinking it to the bottom of the ocean doesn't have any adverse side effects.
