26、hah forest trees. As we all know, the earth would be freezing or burning hot without C02. However, C02 is a greenhouse gas, meaning it traps energy from the sun as/heat. That makes temperatures near the ground rise. Human activities, especially the widespread burning-of fossil(化石)fuels,have been sen
27、ding extra greenhouse gases into the air. This has led to a rise in average temperatures across the globe. Studies had shown forests readily absorb C02,but there hadn t been much data on whether city trees grow, die and absorb C02 at the same rate as forest trees do. So some researchers decided to f
28、ind out. To figure out how quickly trees were growing,researchers tracked their diameters (the width of their trunks) between 2005 and 2014.
