Plants need carbon dioxide

carbon dioxide cicle

We all have heard a lot about global warming by now, but what do you really think about it? Is the life giving gas carbon dioxide really a poison/killing our planet? Plants need carbon dioxide, they are also a vital part of the food chain. Without plants the food chain would be devastated and soon we would be without food. Can we even regulate businesses that produce carbon dioxide? If we regulate it they will just move to China or some 3rd world country that has no regulations on carbon dioxide.

Ecgalup	the balance of the evidence suggests that the amount of warming that will be produced by the famous doubling of carbon dioxide that is always spoken about, that warming will amount to only a few tenths of a degree. Now, that’s at the level of the noise in the climate system, so it’s not something that one should be overly concerned about.

Ecgalup	A second point about carbon dioxide is that increasing it in the atmosphere is actually a benefit to human kind. Why? Well, first because it’s a very powerful aerial fertiliser which increases plant productivity, and it’s one of the reasons the increases in level…why we’ve had a green revolution, and it helps us feed the world. The second is that mild warming, of the sort that’s likely to be produced by an increase in carbon dioxide, is actually a very useful insurance policy because if there’s one thing that all climate scientists agree on, it’s that we’re going to go into another ice age. Now, we don’t know exactly when but, nonetheless, a little bit of warming will go a long way and is not by any means the bad thing that it’s made out to be every day.
