Correct me if I’m wrong but as far as I know trees are no real solution. Yes, they take CO2 to grow, but everything is released again when they die and are consumed by bacteria which just didn’t exist a few million years ago. So they only ever store what the forest is made of and not a bit more. They will rot and never ever become coal again. So while it sounds nice to plant a forest and there are other benefits, when if we planted a forest on every inch of the planet it would not solve our problem. Am I wrong here? Tell me!

A colleague of mine lost a finger a few months earlier while climbing a fence, jumping down and forgetting about his wedding ring. Anyway, we were in a conference call with another office and he jokingly wanted to check the video feed. He asked them: “how many fingers do I hold up?” In that moment I came up with “I’ll give you a hint! It’s not 10!”. It was funny because everyone had forgotten about his finger and only realized after a few secs.

Thank you, that worked!
