i agree that humans have changed a lot. and i also agree that you should look at the current data. you should also look at the failures of reforesting areas that weren't historically forests. what is the data of reforestation failure vs success in those areas?
if you're interested in this topic, i've learned a lot from the authors of this paper (paper is also good and relevant to our discussion and points to a lot of their sources): https://repositorio.unesp.br/bitstream/handle/11449/159556/WOS000402016000003.pdf?sequence=1 https://repositorio.unesp.br/bitstream/handle/11449/159556/W...
it's a fascinating topic! appeals to my social science and nature interests
