Yeah, but after the tree dies and while it decomposes, AFAIK, most of that carbon goes right back into the air. So replanting trees doesn't really have CO2-negative effect.
Having more forest area keeps more carbon down as long as the forest lives. However, if you want to actually get rid of the carbon permanently, you'll have to bury it.
Maybe 1kg per tree reflects some kind of average of these 2?
But I'm not an expert in this topic (not even very knowledgeable) so someone please confirm or correct me!
