Reducing our carbon footprint
Here is a fun fact about plants: Did you know that some
plants like beans can absorb the carbon in the air? If you
think of it like this, plants have 2 benefits: they help the
environment become a greener place and also help reduce
global warming by sucking up the carbon in the air.
As trees grow, they help stop climate change by removing
carbon dioxide from the air, storing carbon in the trees and
soil, and releasing oxygen into the atmosphere. Also
another plant that helps is the beans. In our SISQ garden
we will try our best to plant the plants that help reduce
global warming by absorbing the carbon dioxide in the air.
We hope that you will continue to read about our research
journey in our next edition.
