You’ve said this twice now, but do you have a source?

What number of which trees is the bough to capture excess co2 from ground and surface sources?

Planting trees can certainly do a lot, but it is insufficient. If you went all in on "nature based" solutions, it gets you to around 15-20% of needed reductions. This would require a global reshaping of land use policy.

Anyone who says that they have one thing that will solve climate change is either uninformed or lying.
