This impacts the organisms by contributing to the carbon cycle

Trees alter the environment in which we live by moderating climate‚ improving air quality‚ conserving water‚ and harboring wildlife. Climate control is obtained by moderating the effects of sun‚ wind‚ and rain. Radiant energy from the sun is absorbed or deflected by leaves on deciduous trees in the summer and is only filtered by branches of deciduous trees in winter. We are cooler when we stand in the shade of trees and are not exposed to direct sunlight. In winter‚ we value the sun’s radiant energy

trees are the largest and the longest living organisms on earth. To grow tall‚ the trees display miraculous feats of engineering and a complex chemical factory. It has the ability to absorb water and salts from the earth and transport them up to the leaves‚ sometimes over 400ft above. By means of photosynthesis‚ the leaves then combine the water and salts with carbon dioxide from the air to produce the nutrients‚ which serve as food for the tree. In this process‚ trees create wood‚ as well as many
