Untrue.
Just letting a forest grow wild is carbon neutral.
The soil reaches a point of saturation. Eventually the dead trees get eaten by detritivores, releasing the captured carbon back into the air.
Keeping it sequestered long term requires burying it deep - the trees would need to be cut down and transported to where bacteria, fungus, and so on can’t eat them.

It’s net negative as long as it exists. What I said is true.
