So… Trees sucks in co2 and release o2 during day…. and doing the other way around at night… how would that help cleaning up air pollution then?

Call me stupid but I was told that while yes, Trees does absorb CO2 form the air and give Oxygen back during daytime. There’s also a reason to not have tree in your enclosed bedroom during night as it release all the CO2 absorbed.

So my question was that people are saying to plant tree to help purify the air in streets, city, or any dense population location. If the statement in first paragraph’s correct. wouldn’t that just result in that the trees would give the o2 and purify the air during day time and just flood the street with co2 during night? I’m confused…

The real reason you shouldn’t have a tree in your bedroom is that they are usually to large to keep indoors /j
But in all seriousness, there is no reason you can’t keep plants in your bedroom. The rooms in your house aren’t sealed very well and gas transfer will still occur. So any oxygen used by you, plants, pets will be restored from outside and any co2 breathed out by you, plants, pets will escape.
