It has been argued that cutting old-growth forests and replacing them with plantations of young trees would help to alleviate the threat of global greenhouse warming. What important fact does this argument ignore?
A) Forests play too minor a role in global CO2 dynamics, which are affected far more by marine algae.
B) Young trees fix carbon at a lower rate per unit mass than old trees.
C) Most of the biomass of the cut trees would be added to the atmosphere as CO2 within a few years.
D) Most of the young trees would die within a few years.
