You’re getting carrying capacity, carbon capture and carbon neutral confused, which then flows into sustainability.
Carrying capacity isn’t about getting it back or stored - its the environments ability to “carry” our waste products without long term damage or effects. Increases of forest - pine or mature native - does indeed increase the earths carrying capacity for carbon emissions, waste water, runoff and other areas. You’re right, pine doesn’t mean long term carbon capture but that’s not this arguement.
Regarding burning waste that otherwise cant be used - yes it is greenwashing. We used to think the same thing about burning or dumping rubbish- can’t use it so let’s just burn it. Admittedly this is a much more complicated problem and reverts back to a complete circular economy requiring a significant change in design, ways of thinking and culture to eliminate this one - but it can still be done.
