Rainforests, including their animal inhabitants and decaying organic matter, consume roughly as much oxygen as they produce, resulting in a near-zero net contribution to atmospheric oxygen.
The vast majority of the oxygen in the Earth's atmosphere is generated by marine algae in the oceans, not by trees or other terrestrial plants. Despite this, rainforests are incredibly important for reasons such as biodiversity conservation, carbon sequestration, and climate regulation, but oxygen production is not their main role. So there...

Who paid the scientist to push this bullshit?
ReplyDeleteIt's just not rain forests. There are an estimated 3 trillion trees in the world not to mention all the shrubs and bushes. The ocean is also the largest producer of poisonous methane gas or at least what's under it is.
ReplyDeleteBTW that methane leak when the Nord Stream pipeline was blown up was the largest man caused release at around 500k tons. Where were the scientist, environuts and fake news then?
sounds like some Bill Gates kind of bullshit. didn't he have a plan to cut down all of the trees in the west for carbon capture nonsense or something like that ?
ReplyDeletelast year I took my grandson to a greenhouse to see a CO2 generator and asked the owner to explain to him how CO2 helped the plants grow. and yes. the kid is in high school. that is the level of STUPID being taught to kids today.
if we ever want to see changes in our schools, we better start cracking down on the stupid/brain washed teachers
either fire them or something. but this stupid shit has to stop.
Don't know about percentages, but I learned in 3rd grade that photosynthesis gives us O2 to breathe from the plants and we give the CO2 to the plants to breathe.
ReplyDeleteThat's the Big Lie of global wahoo. It's also why kids aren't taught photosynthesis.
Even worse, tropical rain forests pump huge amounts of methane into the air.
ReplyDeleteWant to make more oxygen? Flatten the Amazon rainforest. Turn it into farmland and ranchland. Better 'carbon' capture, better oxygen output, less methane, and farms and grasslands hold the ground better than a triple-canopy jungle.
