Until the tree dies and all that carbon is released back into the atmosphere.

Trees last hundreds of years
Trees die at differing times
Trees are replaced by new trees as they die
Trees support additional plant biomass

Trees are not the solution. The forest is the solution.

No, as said you cab use the wood for building stuff or reduce it to charcoal and store it for a long time, so taking it out permanently.
