Almost half the mass of a tree is carbon, taken from the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide. A tree only takes in carbon when it is growing, and the amount that a tree grows in a year varies from tree to tree. Old trees are bigger and grow more than young trees in a year, usually.
It is estimated that the amount of carbon dioxide that a tree can in this time period is about 48 pounds. In 40 years, the amount is approximately 2000 pounds of carbon dioxide.

A single machure tree will take up 48lbs of Co2 every year, and pump out enough oxygen to satisfy 2 adult humans for that same year.

An acre of trees generally is considered to be the equivalent of .1586546 metric tons of CO2. Generally the formula goes "acres of land = Metric tons of CO2 x 6.303"
The Oceanic Solubility Pump.Oceans absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere.As the oceans get warmer, they absorb LESS CO2 than before.So MORE CO2 remains in the atmosphere.So the atmosphere gets warmer.This makes the oceans warmer.So they absorb less CO2. And so on.This is a positive feedback loop which increases the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
A tree can absorb as much as 48 pounds of carbon dioxide per year. It takes 40 years for one tree to absorb 1 ton of carbon dioxide. A half an acre of trees could absorb 1 ton in approximately 1 year.
No it was not a challenge to absorb enough CO2.
A single machure tree will take up 48lbs of Co2 every year, and pump out enough oxygen to satisfy 2 adult humans for that same year.
co2
Well,plants do absorb oxygen along with CO2,but only a little.We take in oxygen with CO2,but only a little.
Yes
No.
CO2 absorb more heat than other gases or we can say that the other gases are not able to absorb lower radition of infrared rays of 5 to 15 microns but CO2 absorb these and CO2 later on re-radiate these as longer rays ( as heat).
A rain-forest tree can consume over 48 pounds of carbon dioxide a year. The amazon is responsible for over 40 percent of the worlds fresh air.
No-it can enter from its laves to
It absorbs Co2 through the process of Photosythisis.
It saves around 350kg of co2 a year
