Paper is generally made from fast growing softwood trees like southern pines, loblolly pines, spruces and firs, grown on tree farms specifically for paper making. Not the ideal trees for carbon sequestration, as trees go.
For that you want slower growing hardwood trees, particularly trees like black walnut, silver maple, sycamores, etc.
