AdrianR Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Despite reports this week that the global temperature is down this year (La Nina is the cause) and hasnt risen this century, why do we not plantr more to offset the CO2. Lost count of the places around Warrington where we have just green grass where trees could be planted. Surely our genetic bods can create a hybrid plant thats CO2 greedy? Why not plant more trees along roads and central reservations (behind barriers of course) so the car fumes can be absorbed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Good idea, and I think they do; but maybe not enough - plus they'd obscure all the roadside advertising that currently distracts drivers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonymaillman Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Lime trees are one of the best for absorbing CO2 ........ it's the costs that they look at, trees need managing and looking after, and ANYTHING that costs money that is useful the council won't do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
