Could we have a law, that says, that for every tree we burn, we need to put one tree of equal size in an underground storage, to store CO2, basically capturing it from the atmosphere, and plant two new trees, where they have a realistic chance of growing again properly? (of course the devil is in the details about what a realisitc chance means)
