Your prof was correct. We need to cut down existing large trees, put them into long term use where they can be used for 100+ years and plant new trees in their place. It is the simplest and very natural way to capture carbon. Fully grown trees are mostly carbon neutral, growing trees on other hand are capturing carbon. Perhaps we can cut down large trees, coat them with very durable recycled plastic and simply store them on coastal line. Canada and USA can heavily subsidize logging industry where 1. They have 100 year plan to plant and cut trees. 2. Wood gets exported to poorer countries where deforestation is a problem.
