I found it really surprising that such small increases in temperature could slow down tree growth so much. It’s kind of scary that forests might actually start releasing more CO₂ instead of absorbing it.
I agree with you that the positive feedback loop is one of the most concerning parts. It shows how climate change could start to speed up in ways we can’t fully control if we don’t act soon. I also liked how you brought up plant engineering. The idea of giving C₃ plants better traits like C₄ or CAM sounds promising, even though it's not working perfectly yet. I thought it was interesting that this kind of change has happened before in evolution — maybe with better technology, scientists can make it happen again.
I also agree that we need more than just one solution. Protecting forests, using clean energy, and changing the way we use land all need to work together. There’s no quick fix, but it helps knowing that scientists are trying a lot of different things.
