Emissions
From cars, factories, and backyard trash burning, there are all sorts of harmful substances being emitted into the air. Carbon dioxide is one of the biggest emission problems, as it is released into the environment most frequently and at the highest volumes. That’s why terms such as carbon footprint and carbon credit are pretty well-known.
There are ways to offset the problem of harmful air emissions, and one is as simple as planting a tree. A typical tree can consume up to 1 ton of carbon dioxide in its lifetime. With deforestation constantly occurring, due to forest fires and the logging industry, planting trees is becoming more and more pertinent.
