Planting trees doesn't really do anything. All of the CO2 a tree takes in is re-released when the leaves fall, and when the tree dies or burns.
The only way to get rid of CO2 is to turn it into methane. The methane then decays and it is gone forever. Methane starts to decay immediately and is completely gone in a little over 7 years. While CO2 can last for hundreds of years.
