I have hundreds of trees. Catch up you sniveling lib!
Peasy for no volcanos because of one farts is more bad gases than we've ever produced. HTH -
Well from what I've seen were at a net negative. So I guess you mean to feed the trees that get us back in to the green.... no pun intended.HoustonHusky said:I'm just glad we've been adding enough CO2 to the environment to feed all the new trees...

Sounds like the USA is the planets lungs.RaceBannon said:https://mnn.com/earth-matters/wilderness-resources/stories/more-trees-than-there-were-100-years-ago-its-true
In the United States, which contains 8 percent of the world's forests, there are more trees than there were 100 years ago. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), "Forest growth nationally has exceeded harvest since the 1940s. By 1997, forest growth exceeded harvest by 42 percent and the volume of forest growth was 380 percent greater than it had been in 1920." The greatest gains have been seen on the East Coast (with average volumes of wood per acre almost doubling since the '50s) which was the area most heavily logged by European settlers beginning in the 1600s, soon after their arrival.
This is great news for those who care about the environment because trees store CO2, produce oxygen — which is necessary for all life on Earth — remove toxins from the air, and create habitat for animals, insects and more basic forms of life. Well-managed forest plantations like those overseen by the Forest Stewardship Council also furnish us with wood, a renewable material that can be used for building, furniture, paper products and more, and all of which are biodegradable at the end of their lifecycle. -
Wow lots of conjecture it seems you are emotionally compromised. I'm always down to meet up in real life and have a real mediated debate.RaceBannon said:
And yet you still contradicted yourselfGwad said:
Lol you guys were citing a lawyer that claims himself a scientist. Talk about scraping the bottom of the barrel.RaceBannon said:
Except on climate change. Where the science is settled and you have the factsGwad said:
The same except declarations of science and having the 'facts'. I'm not THAT ignorant.CuntWaffle said:
What is it that you do then?Gwad said:Ok it has been declared that Race can go copy paste an article and call himself a man of science. Welcome to the new age!!!
You need to do better
You do indeed declare that science is settled and you have the facts on climate change
When I presented scientific facts on reforestation in America you got butthurt because you wanted to blame Trump
Keep working on that troll game. You'll get it someday -
Go tell it to the chicoms, Brazilians and the Indians. Seems like a them problem. Maybe we could get them to sign a piece of paper and pinky swear.
