Trees are part of the solution. If we were to reforest the world you begin to encounter other issues like land for farming(although agroforestry helps with this), land for solar farms/nuclear, etc. It is annoyingly complex. I would argue rewilding the land is more important for restoring biodiversity and reconnecting humans with nature. The carbon sequestration it provides is just an added touch.
