And how about Haiti? And we are mowing down the worlds forests at an ever increasing rate,,,even though they create the oxygen we need. But what the hell, once the forests are gone along with oxygen, we will find other “solutions,” right? We are a fundamentally insane species.

Never fear, the carbon dioxide glut is coaxing up more forests to take the place of what is being harvested. And algae too, everything green.

Haiti is border to border with the Dominican Republic.

Compare and contrast.

More O2 comes from single cell organisms than comes from trees.

There are more trees in the US now than there were in the Civil War. The number of trees in the US climbs every year.

Governments tend to be the problem when humans are dying.

BTW, where does the oxygen 'go'?

Are we transporting it off planet? It's still right here on mother earth.

Deforestation is actually slowing down.

Source?

,,even though they create the oxygen we need. But what the hell, once the forests are gone along with oxygen, we will find other “solutions,” right?

Maybe the phytoplankton which are in the top 300 ft. of 70% the world's surface might like to weigh in...

We are a fundamentally insane species.

No argument there...

Actually, algae produces 80% of the world's oxygen.
