|
trees soak up carbon dioxide
|
Detailed explanation-1: -When forests are cut down, much of that stored carbon is released into the atmosphere again as carbon dioxide (CO2). This is how deforestation and forest degradation contribute to global warming.
Detailed explanation-2: -As trees grow, they help stop climate change by removing carbon dioxide from the air, storing carbon in the trees and soil, and releasing oxygen into the atmosphere.
Detailed explanation-3: -The degradation of forests ultimately leads to a decrease in oxygen and a sufficient increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. In order to make up for the loss, more trees are being planted. As a result, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere could significantly decrease.
Detailed explanation-4: -As trees, plants use carbon dioxide for the photosynthesis process, they act as a carbon reservoir. But the deforestation leads to the clearing of forests which directly impacts carbon dioxide intake from the atmosphere. This, in turn, results in the warming of the atmosphere.
