What plant or plants use the most CO2 and produce the most Oxygen?

Are there any good websites or books that discuss plants that use the most CO2? And is there a significant difference from plant to plant? I'm looking for planting options for my property.

What plant or plants use the most CO2 and produce the most Oxygen?
a tree called Pawlonia is the one that is recomended and the World bank pays subsidies to farmers who reforrest with these trees, under their program for capturing carbon and the production of oxigen.


a good general rule for plants is to look for plants with big leaves,and this varies with climatic conditions
Reply:Plants that use te most CO2 would actually be plants that grow te fastest. The CO2 a plant uses becomes the carbon that a plant makes cellulose and other carbohydrates with.





My best guess as a Botanist would be common field corn. A plant with rapid growth chararistics would either be a crop plant like corn, or a invasive weed like kudzu.





Good question, sorry for the incomplete anwer, but I just wanted to steer you into the right direction.
Reply:C3 plants
Reply:Young, fast growing C3 plants use the most CO2 and produce the most oxygen.
Reply:becuse in plants photosynthesis takes place due to which the consumption of co2 and water takes place and oxygen release


reaction is such as


6CO2+ 6H2O ------%26gt; C6H12O6 + 6O2
