Would planting trees across an earth-like planet to reduce the CO2 and produce O2, be enough to keep it in balance?

An IPCC report of Oct 8, 2018 indicates - to keep the world temperature rise at or below 1.5 C, we need to reduce our CO2 emissions globally from the 2010 level by 45% by 2030, and a further 55% reduction by 2050, bringing us to zero CO2 emissions from then on.

An average tree should be able to "˜eat' or sequester some CO2 each day. It is certainly a no-risk, low tech solution that everyone could understand and maybe even support if it worked (on this earth-like planet...)
