ArabiaWeather.com- It is known to everyone that plants absorb carbon dioxide gas, and this is not something new or strange, but what is new is what was revealed by a study conducted on girls related to the absorption of carbon dioxide by trees and plants, as it indicated that they absorb carbon dioxide More than we thought by 16%.

For scientists, this fact is an explanation for why the volume of this gas in the atmosphere is less than previously calculated by climate change models, which is very important for evaluating the future impact of carbon dioxide on the climate.

In their study, American scientists conducted a new analysis, to conclude from how the absorbed gas is divided in plant leaves, that it absorbs 16% more gas than we thought.

Although some scientists agree that these results will help clarify this trend, they believe that this does not give the right to put the issue of future temperature rises into question.

The new study shows the extent to which the structure of plants affects the global climate, according to expert Pip Kandel, who pointed out that the absorption of carbon dioxide by plants is one of the many factors that affect climate changes.
