Trees Do NOT remove CO2 From the Atmosphere on Net – No Sequestration Results! Decay Growth Equalibrium
Trees do not sequester CO2, they merely store it until they fall down and rot. Rot being a slow burn it re-releases the CO2. Thus any tree sequestration schemes are a scam. Some may argue that the rot is very slow. I disagree with this however even this does not make any difference. While rot may occur at a different rate than growth it does not matter. The reason being that the pile of composting felled trees merely builds up to such a height that equalibrium is eventually reached. Thus:     decay rate CO2 production  == tree growth CO2 removal rate  You Read more…
