Alice mark Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 About 30% of the global total land area is covered by forests, these amounts to just under 40 million km2. About 1% of forests are consumed by fire each year, causing casualties, economic damage, and loss of biodiversity and release of carbon to the atmosphere. Forests influence climate change mainly by affecting the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. When forests grow, carbon is removed from the atmosphere and absorbed in wood, leaves and soil. :o ------------- Alice Mark Social Media Marketing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuukaruTora Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Also, forests have trees in them. And the trees are made of bark, pulp, and leaves. And the trees are cut down for use as paper, fuel for a fire, and other stuff. Also, in some TV shows, there are talking trees. I wonder how they would react to being cut down...
