Living Carbon wants to create #GMO trees that don't rot to sell as carbon offsets to huge emitters like Microsoft so they can do nothing to ACTUALLY reduce their emissions. What about the impact on soils, fungi, forests? They don't know. Global Justice Ecology Project visited them at their facilities.
