Tree Carbon Storage
Number of Trees
Tree Type
Age (years)
Trees sequester CO₂ through photosynthesis, storing carbon in their woody biomass and roots. Sequestration rates vary by species, age, and climate.
- 1Deciduous trees (UK): ~22 kg CO₂/tree/year
- 2Conifers: ~30 kg CO₂/tree/year
- 3Tropical trees: ~50+ kg CO₂/tree/year
- 4Total stored ≈ Annual rate × Years × Number of trees
50 oak trees, 15 years after planting=CO₂ stored ≈ 50 × 22 × 15 = 16,500 kg = 16.5 tonnes
| Species | kg CO₂/tree/year | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Oak (mature UK) | ~21 | Deciduous |
| Ash | ~12 | Deciduous |
| Sitka spruce | ~30 | Conifer |
| Willow (fast growing) | ~50 | Deciduous |
| Mangrove | ~150+ | Tropical |
