Do Christmas Trees Give Off Oxygen at Steve Courtney blog

Do Christmas Trees Give Off Oxygen. Trees with large canopies, such as oak and beech trees, are known to produce substantial amounts of oxygen. The environmental pros and cons of christmas trees go far beyond the climate impact of real or plastic, scientists say. Experts say both real and fake christmas trees can change the air you're breathing indoors. At night, the process is reversed. According to the uc berkeley college of natural resources, pine trees produce the least amount of oxygen because of their thin needles. Trees give off carbon dioxide and absorb oxygen in a process called respiration. Live christmas trees release chemicals called volatile organic compounds (vocs). But beyond this, let's look at other ways trees are important. Some of those vocs can react with ozone, a reactive gas, to produce chemical irritants inside the home. On the other hand, douglas fir, spruce, true fir, beech, and maple trees give off the most oxygen. Nist researchers placed a common type of christmas tree in a sealed chamber for 17 days to monitor and measure the chemicals it emits. Because of this, most plants, including trees, can only create oxygen during the day. The level of chemical irritants is low but may be a potential concern for people who are sensitive to them. Plants use water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide during photosynthesis to create food and oxygen.
