You don’t need to put algae in cities. They can be basically anywhere to absorb CO2.

Trees in cities tend to be carefully chosen for the environment. Are we in a climate where we need to put salt on the road in the winter? Choose trees that can tolerate some salt in the ground.

As much as it sucks, until we reduce the need for cars, northern rural areas are going to need to use salt for roads to be usable. Of course, if global warming gets worse it won’t be an issue

“Global warming” doesn’t mean warmer winters. It means extreme summers and winters and nothing in between, with a global temperature raising.

Besides the already stated fact that global warming will only make winters worse, there are better ways like cleaning the snow (ok, that’s radical) or using abrasives like sand or gravel.
