Read this Paper
This paper details how our CO2 emissions could be completely counteracted, by converting about 25% of our grain-based agriculture to agriculture based on nut trees.

Papers on this subjectA friend of mine, Phil Rutter, wrote a couple of papers on using "Woody Crops" instead of grains to tie up additional CO2.

The reverse is also trueYou can offset the increase in CO2 production by planting woody plants for agriculture rather than annual grains. Check out these articles by Phil Rutter of Badgersett Research Farms:

Hazels do this
I was talking to Phil Rutter of Badgersett Research Farm who grows hybrid hazel bushes. He says that hazels absorb large amounts of manganese (>2000 ppm) & other metals & store them in their leaves. He thinks they do this to make the leaves less palatable for deer browsing.
