Plants and trees are carbon neutral. They release the carbon when they decompose.

Not entirely. Some goes into the topsoil. Also if your guerilla project lives on one plant is replaced with another, so it is carbon negative compared with no plants in its place.

You gotta sequester the carbon by harvesting the trees and then either building stuff (like buildings or furniture, not disposable goods) with them or burying/sinking them in anaerobic conditions so they can't decompose.

A little part stills goes to soil and other, we wouldn't have coal if old trees decomposed all their CO2 back to the air
