That's called planting trees. We need a huge reforestation effort to go along with eliminating co2 emissions.
In my area, drought and heat have been so bad the last few years, a lot of native trees are dying. You could try reforesting with trees native to a dryer, nearby area, but that's generally thought of as bad practice, and there's no guarantee they would do well in that particular soil. It seems like the climate in my area is changing to be incapable of supporting forests.
Luckily, we live in a global biosphere.
