Why wouldn't that stop global warming? Obviously, someone has to make the land available, and someone needs to pay, but this completely overturns the claim that it's a global scale challenge if it holds up. Also, I think others claim to plant trees for less.https://twitter.com/Plinz/status/1213211831994437632 …

If you have a seedling in your hand and a freshly prepared patch of publicly owned fertile soil in front of you, and you don’t need US health insurance, you can plant the tree for less. But you cannot tend, harvest, uproot, transport, sequester and bury the tree for that price.

The problem is not money, but resource limits. Turning billions of acres of fertile land back into forest may affect food production, and is very labor intensive if it has to happen in this generation. (It may happen anyway, but slowly, after our civilization is gone.)
