Perhaps! (It depends on which tamarind tree you mean.)

All trees remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow. This carbon is used to build the roots, trunk and branches, and more than 50% of a tree is carbon.

Fast growing trees take in more carbon dioxide than others.

There are several different kinds of trees round the world called 'tamarind'. One tamarind tree (Albizia summons) has a wide canopy and thick leaves coupled with an extensive network of roots that can absorb water with a maximum. Research conducted by Dr. Ir. Endes N. Dahlan, Lecturer at the Faculty of Forestry, Bogor Agricultural University, suggests that this tamarind tree removes more carbon dioxide than some other trees.

Another tamarind or tantan, the botanical name for which is Leucaena, is claimed to be the fasting growing tree in the world, reaching its full height of 15-20 feet in about three to four years.

The tamarind tree of Asia, famous for its aromatic seeds and paste, is not one of the fast growing trees.
