....three trillion trees yet there are numbnuts who will sit in a tree to protest because it will be cut down.
And here is the Daily Mail with an article saying that we are destroying 15 billion trees a year.
And how does anyone know how many trees have grown since or before human civilization came about.
3 trillion divided by 15 billion = never run out as trees grow back.
“We’ve nearly halved the number of trees on the planet, and we’ve seen the impacts on climate and human health as a result,” Crowther said. “This study highlights how much more effort is needed if we are to restore healthy forests worldwide.”

Oh my gosh, “trees grow back?” I never knew that. I was taught in the guvmint skools that trees were too valuable to be used because once they were cut down, the land was paved over or let to erode into great canyons. Gee, does the guvmint know that trees grow back? Somebody ought to tell them and they can spend a billion dollar study to see if it is actually true.
I think this is a SWAG (Scientific Wild-Ass Guess).
UMMM....Trees respirate CO2. They aspirate oxygen.
Yep, sometimes I post without my brain even engaging. It happens.
No foul.
