25kg per year, per tree. Let’s plant these “trees” everywhere.
If every one of the 20 some million adult Canadians planted a tree once a week for say 10 weeks a year, just imagine. 20 million x 10 x 25kg sequestered a year later and you get additional benefits. No need to change your lifestyle, just plant on on the fringe of grass by the Walmart parking spot, drop on in by your workplace, etc. Golf courses: sorry we need trees, your lifestyle will change sooner rather than later anyway golf course user.
Edit: 5 million metric tonnes, I think.
And, hey, why not pay young people to do this? You get a tray of trees in the morning. Sign into your app, document each tree. In addition to planting the app sends you to previous locations others planted trees at to verify the tree is there.
I have a way to do this but it would require people to plant trees.

5 million tonnes.
But then if 4000 tonnes is equal to reversing 3s worth of emissions, 5 million tonnes would still only be 3750s, or just over 1 hour.
Yup, not awesome but you do it year after year. It might help raise consciousness. But, yes, ultimately a drop in the bucket.
