Do you mean planting giant redwoods? Sure, people plant them. But the time to grow them to the size that are being butchered is a century or more. You can’t replace those forests that fast. In the meantime, you lose the root system that holds the ground and an entire ecosystem of other plants and animals.

They can’t be replaced that way. Even if you waited that long, the life dependent on the entire system would be lost.

You can even buy redwood seedlings on Amazon.

The biggest loss of Redwoods in the past 50 years has been due to poor management practice by the US National Park System and the US Forest Service. These issues wer corrected about 20 years ago and we are now seeing new redwood seedlings in places where there were none before.

If you really want to grow trees fast – talk to the commercial timber companies. They literally grow trees as crops and have ‘tree growing’ down to a fine art.

Trivia note – hunting orginizations such as Ducks Unlimited and Wildlife Unlimited have preserved more acerage than have all the US enviornmental groups.
