do trees make rain?

I was reading about how clouds form rain around particles and these particles are often living. The writer suggested that these particles may originate in, or be fed by, volatiles from tree canopies. But everyone knows that trees cause rain, right?

This video, from a slower gentler time, talks about how trees capture moisture mechanically, with some lovely camcorder footage as accompaniment. The date and time on the camera seem weirdly charming nowadays; the idea that people once timestamped their reality visibly, rather than tucking it into footnotes.
