I don't think that is how it works, Finland and Sweden already plant more trees than they harvest, and as long as you replenish the stock you seem to be ok.
I am all for keeping old growth forests, but there is no point in trying to re-wild and regrow forests that are already essentially monoculture farms of trees, primarily pine and fir as that place has already been destroyed.
Drive any direction in Sweden or Finland for 2 hours and you will find perfect rows of pine and fir trees as part of what is essentially a wood plantation.
