Plant life saved Earth from an icy fate - environment - 02 July 2009 - New Scientist - 0 views

  • About 50 million years ago, Earth was a hothouse – the poles were ice free, and crocodiles lived in the Arctic. Then, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere started dropping from around 1000-1500 parts per million (ppm), and the Earth began to cool.
  • By about 24 million years ago, the uplift of the Himalayan and Andes mountain ranges led to large-scale weathering of rocks, a process that removes massive amounts of CO2 from the atmosphere. This reduced the greenhouse effect and cooled the planet.
  • Trees play an important role in the sequestration of atmospheric CO2 in magnesium and calcium carbonate rocks.
