After years of scientific uncertainty and speculation, researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill show exactly how trees help create one of societys predominant environmental and health concerns: air pollution. It has long been known that trees produce and emit isoprene, an abundant molecule in the air known to protect leaves from oxygen damage and temperature...

With addition of smog, trees may generate air pollution

2013-04-26 21:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Mongabay: In 2004 scientists found that isoprene, a compound produced by trees to protect their leaves from oxidation and temperature fluctuations, plays a role in the production of particulate matter, tiny particles that can cause lung damage, asthma, and other health problems. The finding - which led some to argue that forests are worsening air pollution rather than helping mitigate it - was incomplete however. Researchers didn't fully understand how isoprene and air pollution was linked. A new study...
