Scientists pump CO2 into UK forest to measure effect of climate change

Researchers are pumping carbon dioxide into a forest to measure how it copes with rising levels of the gas - a key contributor to climate change.The decade-long experiment, which is being conducted by University of Birmingham's Institute of Forest Research, will expose a fenced-off section of woodland in Norbury Park, Staffordshire, to levels of CO2 that experts predict will be prevalent in 2050.The Free Air Carbon Dioxide Enrichment experiment aims to measure the forest's capacity to capture ca
