Can you tell why the evergreen forest is like the lungs of the earth?
Forests are often referred to as "the lungs of the earth", probably by folks who have no idea about what lungs do except that it has something to do with air. Lungs extract oxygen from the air and provide it to the body for conversion of food (e.g. sugar) to carbon dioxide. Trees absorb carbon dioxide and convert it to oxygen and sugars through photosynthesis - the dead opposite of the lung/body function. Trees might better be called the "anti-lungs" of the Earth as they do this opposite function. Even calling them the scuba tanks of the Earth might be more correct as they supply oxygen to living organisms. Most accurate would be to call them the oxygen factories.
