annual methane emissions. In a follow up study done in 2009, plants grown in carbon-13 enriched environments were observed to not emit significant amounts of methane. Other research has indicated that the plants are not actually generating methane; they are just absorbing methane from the soil and then emitting it through their leaf tissues. Such an instance can be seen in seasonally flooded parts of the Amazon Rainforest, where trees in said areas pumped 200 times the normal amount of methane out from each tree, accounting for around 40 million
