Good luck manufacturing those in a carbon-neutral way.

There are no hacks. We need to stop emitting so much of this stuff.

Who is going to pay for those factories that net-reduce emissions by 1/4? what about pouring those fund into avoiding emissions in the first place, like replacing coal plants with something green or not building new ones or not burning down rain forest or getting people to not commute for 3 hours a day in their SUVs or flying intercontinental for a week of beach holiday?

Sadly, stopping emissions isn't enough anymore.

Sadly, we're not going to achieve even that much. We will not only fail to hit net zero, we will still be increasing year on year long after that point.

Net zero was always hard, harder than anyone would actually admit. Because what actually needs to be done is even harder than that. Thus far we have accomplished fuck all and will continue to achieve fuck all.
