Why plants are good for the environment and how do they prevent global warming?

Plants are good for the environment for many reasons. The fact that the prevent global warming is just one of them. Other reasons include giving animals homes and food. Plants prevent global warming because they use Carbon Dioxide to make energy for themselves. Carbon Dioxide is a greenhouse gas, which means that it helps trap heat from the Sun in the Earth. This is a good thing, since Earth would be very cold if there were no greenhouse gases, but global warming is caused by there being too many greenhouse gases, which make it too hard for the Earth to cool off naturally. Plants help prevent global warming because they take Carbon Dioxide out of the air.

Also, the temperature on Earth's surface depends strongly on the Sun.
