Fishfarming is a BIG industry in Tasmania. Trees make oxygen and you have to have it. No more attacking your life support system Prudence or you'll end up like Tony Abbott. Trees aren't the only things that "make" oxygen. (Well at least make it available in molecular form.) It could well be argued that a paddock of dense growth of weeds and/or grasses would make more nett oxygen available to the poor bloody dependent animals like us, than an equivalent area of trees. (And it would be interesting to compare the figures for regrowth forest versus "old growth" in this sense.) Cheers, Phred. -- LID |
