What if we planted a Trillion Trees? | #aumsum

There are about 3 trillion trees on earth right now. So planting a trillion trees would increase that number by 33%. The impact will definitely be positive for earth as well as all the living things. But this will not immediately solve the climate change problem.

Firstly, freeing up so much land for planting trees seems like a mammoth task. Secondly, these trees would take a number of years to grow big enough to make any meaningful contribution towards reducing carbon dioxide from air. Thirdly, if we do nothing about emissions and keep on adding carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, then by the time trees grow, we would have added more than 1 trillion tons of carbon dioxide, thus nullifying the effects of these trees. So, plantation of trees plus cut in emissions are the need of the hour.
