I hear that mentioned a lot. But there are some important considerations. Taking previously unforrested land and converting it to forests will sequester carbon for as long as that condition holds. Planting trees and either letting them grow into old growth forests or using them for lumber can sequester carbon for centuries. Don't underestimate the value of buying time to transition to clean energy and develop more advanced technology.

That’s my thinking as well. This problem arose on the human timeline. It must also be solved on the human timeline. The real requirement is th carbon being out of th it within the human timeline and that the sequester process be continued. Seems like a net boon to the economy that way.

I know I’d love to see homes built out of wood more often, as well.
