ARBORER – one who shapes rings on an arbor... https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/arborer

When we come out of the Covid-19 crisis, we need to make sure recovery efforts address the Climate Crisis (which can't be solved using social distancing!)

OK, it is in the Merriam-Webster dictionary, although the entry notes that, "there are over 200,000 words in our free online dictionary, but you are looking for one that’s only in the Merriam-Webster Unabridged Dictionary". It's not in any other dictionary that I could see, including the OED. And I struggled to find an example of the word in use.

I rule it too obscure.
