After a forest fire is more carbon dioxide present?
A forest fire will release the carbon dioxide that the trees took out of the air as they grew, back into the air. After the fire is out this carbon dioxide will disperse into the atmosphere of the planet and be taken up as the new forest grows to replace the one that burned.
Thus therefore is a cycle or balance of Carbon Dioxide maintained by living things (including forests), the problem comes when people do not let the forest re-grow, then the Carbon Dioxide stays in the air.
