“CO₂ isn’t a pollutant” climate change deniers are missing the point, and hopefully this meme is simple enough for them to understand. I’d post it on Reddit too, but I’m trying to cut down on Reddit use.

Meme about Wreck-It Ralph (labeled “Fossil fuel emissions") overfeeding a pink rabbit (labeled “Plants") pancakes (labeled “C0₂")
And even then, when these plants die, they release all the carbon they captured. So you need to take that into account as well.
I mean, not quite, it all depends on what happens to them once they die
Not necessarily! We could theoretically bury that biomass deep underground where the pressure and heat eventually turn it into fossil fuels.
Not that it’s particularly likely, but it is technically possible!
