Went for an engineering degree and starting doing math courses again at 29, and I'm doing much better than in high school or when I attempted college the first time at 18. Shouldn't worry too much about your brain having lost plasticity or whatever, I'm in my 30s now and perfectly capable at all of it.

Though something that made a big difference is that my college has remedial math courses that can send you into College Algebra and above.
I've attended 5 different colleges, and the others couldn't do that, it was either you climb a steep hill and self-teach yourself enough to placement test directly into College Algebra, or you're screwed, you're dumb and you shouldn't pursue a STEM degree at all

What if the problem is that you need to remove the billions of tons of CO2 throughout the different layers of the atmosphere, which on its own is going to stay there for years or decades, and structures at ground level won't absorb the carbon, at least not fast enough?
