Plant more trees, and the problem is solved. Right?
Planting more trees will help, but it is not a “fix-all,” and there is little chance we can plant enough trees in the near future to offset the worldwide devastation of forests. The climate change problem is critical enough that we need to look to green technologies for reducing our consumption of fossil fuels, including solar, wind, and geothermal generation of electricity. Planting trees will certainly help solve the problem, but it will not fix the problem on its own.
