Farting trees

Jump to newest

According to a "news" outlet, 'Tree farts' from so-called 'ghost forests' in North Carolina are contributing to greenhouse gas emissions, according to experts from North Carolina State University. Dead trees -- also known as snags -- in these 'ghost forests' release carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide in trace amounts (as does the nearby soil) that are contributing on some level to greenhouse gases.

Does this answer an age-old question "If a tree farts in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound"?

Will Greta now be campaigning against flatulent firs, bottom-burping birches and all other tooting trees?

No expert... but think ‘who ever smelt it, dealt it’ would still apply
