When we cut down trees…
Ignorance Fuels the Climate Crisis
The reason we hear politicians promising to plant millions of trees to fight #ClimateChange is living trees store carbon. The bigger the tree, the more carbon.
Every perfectly healthy big tree that is wantonly cut down for landscaping reasons releases the carbon it had sequestered throughout its life.
It is positively crazy to be cuttting the tiny sliver of old growth forrest remaining in Canada.
