I find the narrative "we need BOTH emission reductions AND carbon dioxide removal" increasingly problematic. We need emission reductions. Full stop. Period. End of story. Here is another attempt to show why emission reductions must come first & be prioritised. 1/

How to feed 20 people. Two possible ways to feed 20 people with very different outcomes. By choosing path number one we can reduce emissions with 97% and reduce land use by 90% and still feed the same amount of people. Thereby freeing up space for nature..

In honor of #EarthDay2023, let’s not forget that tackling climate change is not just about reducing emissions but also about benefiting those most impacted by it. At Gigatonne, we’re creating #greenjobs and reducing CO2 emissions while benefitting the most vulnerable population.
