Why would planting more trees be seen as a positive impact on the levels of CO2 in our atmosphere that have led to climate change?
|
|
Plants provide food for consumers to complete cellular respiration
|
|
|
Plants remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere for photosynthesis
|
|
|
Plants store CO2 in the soil for later use
|
|
|
Plants are used to form fossil fuels

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -CO2 capture Direct air capture (DAC) technologies extract CO2 directly from the atmosphere. The CO2 can be permanently stored in deep geological formations, thereby achieving carbon dioxide removal (CDR).
Detailed explanation-3: -Studies have shown that higher concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide affect crops in two important ways: they boost crop yields by increasing the rate of photosynthesis, which spurs growth, and they reduce the amount of water crops lose through transpiration.
