Why Can't Trees No Longer Save Us?

This is a 2 min and 18 secs video on why trees can't save us anymore.

Trees need CO2 to live and grow. But now the amount of CO2 is so much that trees can't save us. Because there is very little space on Earth to prevent climate change. Change as little as 3.6 F can be deadly for the earth and it creates wildfires, drought, and extreme storms.

If we planted at least 1.7 billion acres of trees, then 3 billion tons of CO2 can be removed. But recent reports state that we can't grow enough trees to capture the necessary amount of CO2.

So for now, we can't do much as scientists and politicians are still working on drastic measures to prevent this.
