How much CO2 does the average tree convert into oxygen in a year?

Question

I realize different types of trees may produce differing results. If someone knows the data for confiers, broadleaf trees, grasses, etc that would be nice. Or if not, an overall average would suffice.

Since trees produce CO2 when they decompose, wouldn't a forest being periodically logged/thinned so that trees weren't rotting in it be a plus on the more oxygen/less CO2 scale?

Answer 1

Biochemically, trees do not convert any CO2 into oxygen. In the light reactions of photosynthesis, oxygen is released from water, not CO2.
Most of the carbon dioxide put into the atmosphere comes from automobile and industrial emissions, not decomposing plants.
Most of the oxygen in our atmosphere is produced from algae
along the coastal regions of the world's oceans.

Answer 2

The average tree, over the course of its lifecycle, converts no CO2 into oxygen, as when it dies the decomposition releases all the gas that was trapped in its lifetime. So unless you do something permanent with the wood, planting trees will not affect global CO2 levels.

Answer 3

trees are not the important factor in globle warming its co2 exhaled by 6 billion people.

Answer 4

nicely you may regularly strengthen a condom without planting a seed all you may do is take a lot of supplementations and consume all your dinner up and you will strengthen one enormous and robust like mine ;) plus you'll be sixteen-18 to have intercourse
