Carbon offsets is not the same as co2 removal.

If carbon offset is done well, wouldn't it be equivalent?

AFAICT offsets are "We stopped one tonne from going in", removal is "We took one tonne out".

Unless I'm missing something, that sounds like the same net effect. Why is one better than the other apart from price?
