The tree that helps the most with CO2 emissions is often considered to be the “Pine” tree, particularly certain species like the Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus) or the Scots Pine (Pinus sylvestris). These trees are known for their fast growth and ability to sequester carbon dioxide effectively.
In terms of whether they can be grown in Panama, it’s important to note that Panama has a tropical climate, which is not the natural habitat for pine trees. Pine trees are typically found in temperate or boreal regions.
However, with proper care and in specific microclimates, it might be possible to grow certain pine tree species in Panama, but it could be challenging due to the climate differences.
Native tree species adapted to Panama’s tropical climate would be more suitable for reforestation efforts in the region to combat CO2 emissions effectively.
