    BS. Trees absorb CO2 and produce oxygen. In fact, there are no other sources of oxygen other than that produced by plants, which is why it is an unequivocal indicator of life on other planets. Oxygen is a very reactive element that is used up quickly, combining with other elements, if it is not replaced continuously, not possible by inorganic or geological processes. Refusing reforestation because it serves as an excuse to pollute more is absolute idiocy, an ad hominem fallacy. What is needed is to kick out the fossil energy lobbies from politics and “climate summits”, because they are the cause, not reforestation.

      Trees are not growing fast enough though, and globally algae produce more Oxygen. But of course it is a solution with many different smaller ones

        Not limited to trees, but to affirm that we should not reverse the massive deforestation that we have unfortunately carried out in our history is an absolute outrage.
