Except that you better plant the right kind of trees. Trees are dying all over the world because the band at which they can survive is moving many miles a year, so whatever tree planting we do must happen in a very short amount of time otherwise we will end up with dead trees and fire hazard.
Except that animals are simply NOT adapting fast enough and more than 60% of animals and a possibly higher percentage of bugs has disappeared in 30 years.
So, unfortunately, the natural world is not adapting and evolving. Things are just dying.

Imagine you see a wall in front of you. If you crawl towards that wall (like the world would do naturally) it won't hurt that much hitting it. If you fly a jet airplane into that wall (like we are doing) you will likely die in a fiery crash. Natural world = crawl like baby, Human Climate Change = fly jet.
The RATE of change is what's the problem here.
