100 million tons a day vs 4,000 tons a year

The Sleeping Bear Tree Farm captures approximately 4,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide a year. That seems like a lot of carbon until you know that world-wide, 100,000,000 tons of man-made green-house gases are released every day.

Trees are very good at carbon capture. An average tree captures over 40 pounds of carbon dioxide a day. Scientists are now saying that planting trees can be part of the climate crisis solution, but creation of man-made green-house gases must stop.
