Lack of direct sun causes higher humidity and less light -- - TopicsExpress



          

Lack of direct sun causes higher humidity and less light -- perfect conditions for molds, mildew and fungus growth. Direct sunlight is needed for photosynthesis by plants (to make chlorophyll, their food), and filtered sunlight just doesn’t do the trick. Plants are unable to nourish themselves properly when man-made clouds cover the sky. In Mendocino County (Northern California), from December 16, 2006 to May 30, 2007, there were only three full days of direct sunlight. Wild grasses did not grow more than a couple of inches, despite normal rainfall. What will our world look like with fewer and fewer trees?
