Hey George! Where did all the trees go around here?
Oh, you haven't heard? There was a big forest fire about a month ago.
A Fire!? But how!!
Climate change Bill, that's how.
What does climate change have to do with all the trees?
Well, the increased gasses in the atmosphere is causing a greenhouse effect, which is warming our planet.
But I need trees to build! Dam! (get it?) What are we going to do?
Our planet is now dryer and hotter, making forests more susceptible to wildfires.
You could help me plant some more trees. Not only can we rebuild the forest, there would be more photosynthesis occurring, and less C02, one of the main greenhouse chemicals.
Plant more trees? that's a GREAT idea George, why doesn't everyone plant trees in their neighborhoods?
