Moss has a high leaf-to-surface area ratio, allowing it to absorb a large volume of air for photosynthesis. This efficiency allows moss to absorb up to four times more CO2 per unit area than trees, especially in dense patches. Moss has a natural ability to absorb and trap #airpollutants. #videos

Senate votes to overturn EPA rule that limits 7 hazardous air pollutants The party-line vote marked the first time in the 55-year history of the Clean Air Act that Congress has moved to weaken the power of the landmark environmental law.

To quote the great philosopher Forrest Gump, "Stupid is as stupid does".
