We are 2% of the words emmissions right now. The article states by planting 1 trillion trees trees you can get rid of 25 years of emmissions. So Canada just needs to plant 20 billion trees.

So for less than 20 billion dollars Canada could completely offset our current carbon impact. The current Carbon tax generates about 2.5 billion per year. So it sounds like Climate changed in Canada is solved.
