There's plenty of reasons to plant trees, but capturing CO2 isn't really a great one (and certainly doesn't look like people imagine: if you actually want to capture CO2 you need to basically grow artificial forest aiming for maximum wood output, then cut down all the trees and bury them, rinse and repeat. It doesn't look like restoring old growth forest, which is good for biodiversity and the stability of the ecosystem but basically carbon neutral.)
