Even though planting trees seems like an overall good idea (and I certainly believe so), I recall a recent article where scientists debated whether planting trees will have any impact. From https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-00122-z https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-00122-z > Several analyses in the past few years suggest that these warming effects from forests could partially or fully offset their cooling ability. What's consoling is that at least planting trees is unlikely to harm (although rapid tree plantation will certainly send ripples in the complex, inter-connected ecological chains).
