Remember that a lot of forested areas contain trees that were planted for timber. They aren’t the apex species of that climate zone. Most of the pine species in south Louisiana and Mississippi would die off and be overtaken by broad leafs, bottom hardwoods and cypress if left alone for a few hundred years.
we could plant oak where the pine forests burned in the west. Oak keeps a cooler microclimate and prevents chapparal.

Seeing that we are probably entering a cooling period, is that what we should do?
