Its not as true as they would have you believe... the large forests are
mostly balanced ecosystems, so they neither contribute or take away, the
flora produces O2, the decaying vegetation and fauna however consume it.

So who are 'they' that would have you believe they are not balanced eco-systems?
I've never heard otherwise.
