I've read in a few places that rotting trees emit methane and CO2( both are greenhouse gases).

I was just wondering what else they emitted. I'm curious if there is a surplus of Oxygen, a deficit, or that we break even.

Hippie Environmental Alarmists need not preach the danger of throwing plastic cups on the ground.

Thanks in advance.

I'm really starting to love plants and have such a great facination and admiration for them. What interests me is their productive role in our enviroment ( not interested in enviromental issues) such as providing us with food, medicines and their natural healing properties. I have read a little on ethnobotany and find it facinating but don't wish to specialize in it. Also their uses in the skin care/beauty/aromatherapy industry.

I also would be interested in learning anything about their aesthetic beauty ie why they are different colours, why they produce fragances. Their secret little world like their senstivity to stimuli and of course the usual stuff like breading and gentetics.

Would any of these topics be covered in a botany degree? What actually is covered? Given my above interests, would botany be a ideal path for me? A friend suggested I study horticulture but I have no interest in planting and landscaping.

Have you ever noticed that hard, unripe fruit (like a peach, for instance) is dry when you bite into it? Then wait a couple days after it ripens on your counter and suddenly its juicy. Why?

It is a single shoot that is about 6" tall. It has a soft bulb with small roots, the base of the plant is light orange and the color becomes increasingly darker until it is almost red near the top and the very tip of the plant looks like it was dipped in tar. The bulb is almost like a foam inside and has a fungis/mushroom smell to it. There are about 15 of them growing several inches apart from one another. What is this plant?

we have serious problem with this alien invader tree here in South Africa esp. mountain tributiries, its a serious threat to our local vegetation because it has no natural enemies here. What can one do to get rid of it? I'm only interested in poisons that would not be harmful to the environment/ecology.
