An earlier published report indicates the impacts of climate change are accelerating and worsening our living environment. Besides, the global emissions of carbon dioxide (CO₂) have increased by 20% and sea levels have risen by an annual average of 5mm between 2015 and 2019. Plants are considered a perfect alternative to play the role of turning carbon in the air into healthy material because over the past billions of years we and the nature restored forests, wetlands and other habitats in this way. According to an estimate from the UK, the carbon emissions of  90 cars can be transformed by a hectare of trees.
