Pollutants.... none.

Green plants only extract CO2 from the atmosphere. It's true that we are producing more CO2 but it's not generally regarded as a pollutant.

SO2, NOx and other hydrocarbons, gases emitted from vehicles etc pollute but are not filtered by plants.

It is not just the trees but every green plant.
