I was more or less referring to relying on those sinks to hit carbon goals. I know they are there so its cheaper to include them. But we really need to be eliminating this completely without relying on nature. Especially if we want to continue our meddling as it is.
I read it like, we did rely on carbon sinks to keep doing their thing at a certain rate. Excess CO2 was a factor on top of that.
But now it seems we’re seeing carbon sinks flat line, not keeping the steady state we had assumed was constant, unchanging.
If true, that’s a hell of a tipping point. Am I reading you right?
