Production of Oxygen O2 and its connection to carbon dioxide CO2. Algae produce O2, trees and plants breathe in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, animals and humans consume oxygen: Our O2 / Oxygen was and is formed in the oceans by the phyto plankton, which are smallest algae. Like all living things trees themselves need oxygen and breathe in oxygen – and they exhale CO2!  They can only – like all plants with chlorophyll – operate in sunlight photosynthesis, - which means that than from CO2 becomes Oxygen again. Therefore, the Oxygen and CO2 is balanced in trees and plants. Only humans and animals consume constantly oxygen. The main function of trees in cities is the evaporation and thereby cooling by the large leaf surface. In forests and moors carbon is bound directly in the biomass. Carbon (CO) is bound in moors in the peat, which is why peat extraction is so catastrophic. In forests the carbon is first bound in the wood and then in the soil over the next centuries. What we do with oil and coal burning is nothing but the release of the carbon of millions of years old forest and moorland now within a few years: Hence the incredibly fast changes in the climate. Thus a backstage information from insider for more clarity from 11 Oct 2018.
