Reducing global warming is a common challenge worldwide, but one suggestion to reduce ozone emissions surprisingly involves planting fewer trees. The Environmental Department recently released a list of 15 tree species not recommended for planting, citing their high isoprene emission rates that can lead to ozone formation. Scholars argue that addressing ozone issues should focus on reducing industrial pollution emissions rather than blaming trees. The Environmental Department clarifies that the list is for reference and not mandatory, and further discussions will be held with scholars. Various experts question the accuracy of the list, pointing out that the emission of isoprene is related to environmental conditions and that other factors like industrial emissions play a significant role in ozone formation, emphasizing the need to address these sources instead of solely targeting tree species.
