Back of napkin math...

Panels per acre - Realistic setup: 1,500 panels, 20x20 ft

Power output - 0 25 MW per acre with 2022 technology 400 acres x 0.25 = 100 MW

CO2 absorbing - approx 3 tons/yr per acre 400 acres x 3 = 1,200 tons/yr

1 acre of forest burnt releases approx 7,200 tons of CO2 (normal climate, tree and undergrowth density)

400 acre x 7,200 = 2.88 million tons CO2 released.
