Unauthorized tree planting [View all]

I'm going through an "extremely concerned about climate change" phase, spurred by the Amazon fires. So looking around my city, I noticed parks where an old tree had to be cut down but they never replaced it. I saw rows of trees in the median, where a few had died an no one replaced them. How smart would it be for someone (without anyone telling them they can) to plant a replacement for those trees?
