How many acres of trees each year are needed to off set the 60 billions tons of co2 produced each year?

It's not that simple. Trees also produce carbon dioxide through respiration so they're not as good at reducing CO2 as you like to preach. Also, we mustn't remove all the CO2 we produce as having a decent amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is necessary for life. In addition, most CO2 is removed from the atmosphere from algae and phytoplankton in the sea, we should be more worried about them.


What emits a lot of carbon dioxide?

The body usually generates over 50000 square feet of CO2 a week. Nature though produces almost all of the CO2 produced annually. Rotting trees and matter that is alive or was once living produces CO2 naturally. Combustion of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) releases billions of tonnes of carbon dioxide every year. We burn fossil fuels in industry, in transport, and largely in the generation of electricity.

How does carbon dioxide get in to the atmosphere?

95% of all CO2 in the atmosphere is from respiration. The remaining 5% comes from anything that was alive and is burnt. Fossil fuels make up to 3% of the total CO2 annually produced although almost 40% of that CO2 does not remain in the atmosphere for more then a few hours.
