Question

which human activity would most likely decrease the amount of carbon in the atmosphere?
○ cleaning forests
○ heating coal
○ burning wood
○ planting trees

Explanation:

Trees absorb carbon - dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. Planting trees increases the number of trees available for carbon - sequestration, thus decreasing the amount of carbon in the atmosphere. Burning wood and heating coal release carbon stored in them into the atmosphere. Cleaning forests can also disrupt the natural carbon - sequestration process.

Answer:

planting trees
