Reforestation does diddly squat for CO2 capture. It's beneficial in other aspects, though. Prevents soil erosion. Creates habitat. Just doesn't capture much CO2.

Seems like that's exactly the point. You can't be 100% "green" without going back to what is essentially pre-industrial living. You can certainly pretend being "green" though, and virtue signal about it. I hate to break it to you, but your e.g. Germans (or Europeans of any other locale which has an actual winter) aren't "eating local all year round" _especially_ if they're "vegan", unless they somehow subsist on a ration of storable root vegetables and grain like people did 150-200 years ago.
