Why should one not sleep under the trees at night

Answer Posted / jatin

During the day, in presence of sunlight, the trees use up
the Carbon dioxide (CO2) in the process of photosynthesis
and release Oxygen (O2) as a by-product. But during night
due to absence of sunlight they are unable to use the CO2
and this leads to increase the proportion of CO2 in the air
near the trees. Again, during the night the trees breathe
in oxygen and release carbon-dioxide. So, if someone sleeps
under the trees, the amount of increased CO2 in the air
around will certainly affect the health and he/she will not
get sufficient amount of Oxygen (O2). That is why it is not
advisable to sleep under trees during night.
