The fact the COP is going on really underscores how climate Twitter is pretty much gone now, right? So many voices are now elsewhere.

Last I looked, a forest is a forest. Don't recall ever walking through a forest and thinking "wow, I love what they've done with this net zero forest". What next? Pejorative use of net zero peatland restoration? Sinister net zero insulation of homes?
