Description: In this short video, Beniamino Abis explains the role of forests in our planet’s climate while answering the question “Are trees in urban areas more efficient in terms of CO2 reduction than trees in forests?” Since 2019 Beniamino has been working at Progressive Systems in supporting ESA-ESRIN as an expert in Climate and Earth Observation. This video is part of the "Ask a scientist" webinar organised to support teachers and teams of students participating in ESA Climate Detectives 2020-2021.
