Climate change page 2
Trees convert atmospheric carbon from CO2 into organic woody biomass as part of a respiratory process called photosynthesis. Trees then store the carbon until the woody biomass is destroyed. This carbon storage is ... The cheapest method of converting the land is the "slash-and-burn" technique. Burning the biomass releases enormous amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere. Coupled with the loss of carbon- ...
