Wasn't there a thing where more green cover = more clouds, because the greenery kept surface water from being absorbed into the soil (and therefore unavailable for evaporation and cloud formation)? I seem to remember reading about that. And, obviously, more clouds = higher albedo. Though water vapour itself is a very strong greenhouse gas, so the net effect is tricky to predict.
