Why does the oxygen level in the air doesn’t change dramatically, when most of the trees shed their leaves in the winter?
In: Earth Science
Okay there are some super in depth answers to this and as others have stated we don’t really NEED trees as much as one would think…but this is ELI5 so here is a fairly reasonable thing to think about even if we did. Winter for you is Summer for the opposite hemisphere. So as your trees fall, others are growing back. Kind of like the balloon effect. squeeze one side (Winter) and it gets smaller but the other side (Summer) gets bigger. Then flip it and it works the other way around.
