on a slightly related topic:  Does anybody have a rough idea of the order
of magnitude of daily CO2 turnover by a typical 30-40 year old tree in units
of average daily human CO2 production?  Just rough numbers and orders of
magnitude are all I want...  (of course it will depend on the amount of
sunlight, etc., etc.)
