The only way to stop is to end coal, oil and gas oxidation to CO2. All other things are misdirection, at best.
You are absolutely correct. If we want to stop global climate change, we need to stop burning fossil fuels.
And there are so many other benefits to the environment of growing more trees - especially native species - that anybody who says growing trees is useless is just not paying attention.
And and trees are made of CO2 and release it when they're burned or decay, which makes them, quite literally, carbon neutral. In terms of fuel and building material and so forth wood may not be perfect but it's better than a lot of nonrenewable alternatives.
