Today I got this mail and remembered having learned this already in school. Most of the streets in Berlin are lined with large trees. I think it is best
to plant a tree:
·
According to Canadian sources Canada has 990 million acres
of forests,
·
370 million acres of wetlands and
·
167 million acres of crop-yielding farmland.
·
These are known as "carbon sinks". I.e. :-
they absorb carbon.
·
Biologists tell us that trees absorb about 2.6 tones of carbon per
acre
·
So if you do the math 990 million acres x 2.6 tones/acre=2.574
billion tones of carbon being absorbed every year here in Canada .
·
Now if you do more math: 36 trillion tones (amount of world
emission x 0.0167 (1.67%)=601.2 million tones - this is the amount of carbon
that Canada contributes to world
emissions - in the forests alone, Canada absorbs almost 4
times the amount of carbon it emits.
·
AGAIN :-- In the forests alone, Canada absorbs 4 times
the carbon it emits.
·
This means that the other three quarters of our forests are being
sustained by carbon being emitted by the rest of the world.
·
This calculation does not take into account the wetland or
farmland that also absorbs carbon.
·
Canada really couldn't get
any greener, so why are our politicians hell bent on punishing us with these
ridiculous carbon taxes?
·
If the media were honest, this information would be made public.
SHOULD BE MADE PUBLIC !
·
Considering the fact that Canada is given no credit
for absorbing much more carbon than it emits I think there is a good case for
some lawyer to charge governments with a “class action suit “
