Reduce carbon taxes

Fossil fuels are partly made of carbon, so, when they are burned or are under thermal transformation, they release a certain amount of carbon dioxide in the air. The amount released in the air is proportional to the amount they have in their natural composition. This has numerous negative side effects and therefore, something needs to be done, to compensate for the harm done. This is where the role of carbon taxes come into play. Carbon taxes are calculated according to the quantity of carbon that is released from each of the various types of fossil fuels. Different fossil fuels have different carbon taxes, as they include carbon in different quantities.

Here are some of the most important things to know if you plan on planting trees instead of paying the required tax:

• Air pollution needs forests, and forests need more trees. Moreover, trees can be in the cities too, as they are much needed there as well.
• Water resources are improving as there are more trees on the planet.
• Oxygen is released from the trees. This is done through the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy that, through respiration, is later released to fuel metabolic activities. Oxygen is produced and this is the first stage of the food chain on which all living organisms depend.
• Trees and forests also have a great social impact if they are planted in big cities with high skyscrapers, factories, and vehicles because they are a part of urban greening which is important for people's health.
• Aridity is combatted by trees. Aridity leads to erosions and infertility of the soil.
• Forests are too small and need to expand if we want to save our planet. The number of trees has decreased dramatically.
• Biodiversity can't be in balance if the trees and forests are gone. Therefore, with no balance, global warming, and with it human resources, are becoming more scarce.
