Sequoias store carbon worse in the heat, and the topic of heat might emerge a couple of days earlier than the topic of CO₂ emissions.

In materials about heat and drought, there is immediately talk of how trees hold carbon dioxide: sequoias' photosynthesis weakens, tropical species absorb CO₂ at night. By the dates, the heat progresses slightly ahead of the discussion about emissions.
