Should we use GMO trees to slow climate change?

These trees have been genetically modified to capture more carbon. Should we use them? Thanks to Masterworks for sponsoring this video!

That decision harms our ability to fight climate change. In this video, I look for hope in a new research effort - but it’s important that new science be paired with regulation. As Mr Beast put it in this video, “we’re going to need all the help we can get.“ Recently, I visited a greenhouse full of super trees. Over the past few decades, genetic engineering has given us the power to manipulate living things - crops, animals, even humans. At the same time, we’ve been unable to adequately slow climate change.
