Just checked it. Are you sure? This is what our friend found:

This statement contains several inaccuracies about the carbon flow between birch and fir trees.

## Actual Carbon Flow Pattern

The carbon transfer between paper birch and Douglas fir occurs bidirectionally, but the pattern is different from what was stated[3][7]:

- In summer, when Douglas fir becomes more shaded, birch trees with excess carbon send more carbon to the fir trees[3].

- In fall, when birch trees lose their leaves, Douglas fir continues photosynthesizing and transfers carbon back to the birch[3].

## Key Corrections

**Direction of Spring Flow**

The claim that leafless birch receives carbon from fir in spring is incorrect. The research doesn't show this pattern.

**Magnitude of Transfer**

Studies have shown that the net carbon transfer results in a 2-3% gain by Douglas fir from paper birch[5]. This transfer occurs through underground mycorrhizal fungal networks that connect the root systems of both species[6].

**Mechanism**

The transfer isn't simply a "downhill flow from abundance to scarcity." Instead, it's a complex exchange facilitated by mycorrhizal fungi, where both species benefit from the symbiotic relationship[6]. The fungi receive carbohydrates and vitamins from the trees while increasing the trees' ability to absorb water and essential elements, especially phosphorous[6].

The carbon exchange between these species represents a sophisticated ecological relationship that helps maintain forest health and resilience, rather than a simple one-way flow based on scarcity[3].

Trees are cool

I’m thankful for trees

Whomever believes in reducing carbon emission is a satanist idiot.

The rule is simple: trees literally creates the oxygen we need. Algae does the same as trees. Cows are good and their shit doesn’t do bad for the environment, but it improves everything around them. Nuclear power is amazing and renewable.

All we need to do is: do not concede to WEF and WHO agendas.
