As the world warms up one thing we are losing is the northern permafrost and all the soil which is being held by it.

Planting trees and looking after them as the latitude at which they will survive increases might be a sensible thing to do. They could at some time in the future represent much needed fuel stocks.

Devising cheap wood burning stoves and assisting in getting trees replanted further south might also be a good idea, rather than struggling with the production and distribution of oil burning stoves and the fuel for them.
Burning wood seems to be regarded as a crime these days, but trees are actually rejuvenated by having their top growth removed, they also supply useful materials for making tools, fences, houses, vehicles - even weapons. The soft regrowth makes great food for brousing animals, and breaks the force of heavy rain, wind or snow.
A bit of help to turn deserts into productive woodland would go a long way towards peotecting soil, local wildlife and wandering nomads, and maybe people in general.
