If newly planted forests replace arctic tundra, which consequence follows?

A)Decreased methane hydrate decomposition rates
B)Albedo decreases, warming the region
C)Increased thermohaline circulation strength
D)Enhanced stratospheric ozone layer depletion

💡 Explanation

Lowering albedo will reduce the amount of solar radiation reflected back into space, because forests are darker than tundra. Therefore, replacing tundra with forests causes a net warming effect, rather than any of the climate-stabilizing options.
