Ever wonder how much oxygen a tree produces?

Here was a discussion from Billy and ET Semjase.

Scroll down to just below 83.

Billy,

Can you tell me how much oxygen a full-grown tree actually supplies and how many young trees are needed to replace a full-grown tree in its oxygen production?

Semjase:

  1. This question falls into the area of one of my professions, and therefore, I can answer it for you:

  2. A full-grown coniferous tree of the fir kind produces a quantity of oxygen every 24 hours that is needed for 12 adult human beings to live and breathe.

  3. For the second question, if you make a comparison with an oak tree of 100 years of age, then 2,563 young trees of the same kind are needed to produce as much oxygen as the full-grown tree.
