“A new report from the U.S. Climate Change Science Program has determined that there is now a greater than three-to-one imbalance between the fossil fuel sources and the ability of vegetation to absorb carbon over North America, and that fossil fuel emissions for North America are greater than 25% of global emissions.” According to this article, if we continue cutting down more and more of the forrests we will continue to increase the ratio of fossil fuels in the air to the ability of vegetation to absord them. Whether i’m not sure if this statistic is correct, I do agree that cutting down more and more forrest areas will continue to hurt this world in more ways than one.
