Why absurd? We've removed 3 trillion trees since the beginning of agriculture and replanting 1 trillion is absurd? Or do you think its infeasible?
Estimated cost is a few hundred billion dollars. A lot cheaper than most methods of carbon sequestration. It also has the benefit that it could restore ecosystems if done well. People who focus just on carbon emissions miss that the are more systemic problems with destroying ecosystems i.e. in the long term biosphere collapse.
The larger problem is that it takes 50 years (or longer) for most of the carbon sequestration to happen.
The products we use every day are ever more ingenious and complex. Yet today's product developers rely on decades old collaboration tools which are no longer fit for purpose. At Wikifactory we are building the tools to help people develop better products together.
Over the next 6 months Wikifactory will be adding capabilities to enable users of our existing collaborative design system to manufacture the products they design together. This will involve creating software to mark-up design files for solid models with PMI data for production, creating libraries of standard components, and building APIs to integrate into the workflows of component manufacturers. You’ll be part of a team working closely with cutting-edge product designers, incubators, and manufacturers to understand their needs and build tools which help them accelerate product development.
If you're excited about building the tools to empower the next generation of product developers, you'll fit right in. Come join us and help build a company accelerating the next industrial revolution!
