Oxygen is toxic anyways. Every organisms that breath or has breath oxygen is dead or will die one day.

minus-squareTheSaneWriter@lemmy.thesanewriter.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·1 year agoIndeed. Swamps and bogs experience significantly less decay than other biomes, a dead tree will just sink into the bog and stay there a long time.

minus-squareTak@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoWell yeah, there’s nothing about trees that make them impervious to decay but no real organism does that. But petrified trees are far more stable for carbon sequestration than peat bogs that some brilliant humans decide to burn.
