VOICED: Global warming can be good for trees

Parker has been studying tree growth in Maryland for over 20 years. Recent findings show that trees, regardless of age, are growing faster, likely due to climate change. Increased CO2 levels, higher temperatures, and longer growing seasons contribute to this growth. While this may help reduce atmospheric CO2, it could also lead to poorer wood quality. Parker's team will continue monitoring the trees, but growth may not be sustainable due to unchanged soil and water resources.
