Progressive "environmentalists" hate it when you do things that are good for nature like make it easier for plants to breathe / eat.
Plants grow larger in higher CO2 environments. Larger plants have deeper roots. Deeper roots make plants more drought-resistant.
Higher CO2 also means plants lose less water in the first place when they breathe in CO2.
The carbon trapped in the world's coal beds used to be part of the carbon cycle of life. Plants around the world grew larger faster.
It may be disruptive to humanity to increase CO2 levels dramatically, but the benefits of 800-1000ppm would far outweigh the costs.

NTA, but living in a suburban area, CO2 meter is a great way of being able to gauge how fresh the air in my house is.
Overnight in my bedroom (2 people sleeping), the CO2 level hits 1500-2000ppm if there is no ventilation. With window slightly open it gets to 1100-1500ppm.
When Im airing out the house, I know I'm done when I get below 500ppm.
Great devices, I recommend them to everyone.

Of course plants love CO2, but we're so retarded we paved over many of the areas with the most greenery and created heat islands in their places, so the greenhouse effect is not as regulated. And since we put more CO2 into the air then we can take out, or even that plants can currently take out, we're going to have a problem. A slow gradual problem, but still a problem. But of course the real issue isn't even greenhouse gasses, it's all the seriously rank pollutants that we have put into our atmospheres and lands and waterways.

And since the plants of the temperate zones aren't currently enough to take out the CO2, the Algae is going to be able to absorb more of the CO2, and that can lead to nitration which is bad for fish populations, and what's bad for fish populations and waterways, and what is bad for fish populations and life in waterways is bad for everything that uses those things.

Basically yes, but it's probably got more to do with the decreased oxygen rather than the increased CO2. Headaches, dizziness lethargy etc are known outcomes of hypoxia. Higher CO2 levels without the lowered O2 levels, as we would experience if ambient global CO2 levels were raised, shouldn't cause the same problems.

I'm tired of seeing this stupid lie everywhere. CO2 will not increase plant growth outside of highly controlled conditions.

The law of the minimum governs plant growth. It states that growth is limited by the most scarce factor. Adding CO2 to the atmosphere is like building a barrel with one stave taller then the rest and the "CO2 is plant food" crowd insists that it will make the barrel hold more water. It won't.

Plants need it in a soluble form. That's why we use the Haber Bosch process to make nitrogen fertilizers from atmospheric nitrogen.

We couldn't do that even if we wanted.
1) fuels would become so scarce and expensive that the renewable shit would naturally become the preferred economic solution long before we reached the atmospheric optimum for plants
2) there is a negative feedback loop keeping the concentration from getting too high because plants will pull more CO2 out of the air as we get closer to their optimum

I would get worried only if our use of fuels wasn't decreasing by the time we reach the optimum for plants.

With the existence of life a Venus-type atmosphere for Earth is completely impossible. At absolute worst reckless pollution could raise the Earth's temperature in a few thousand years. To really fuck over Earth you need extinction of plankton, from highly acidic oceans. That means acid rain needs to stop. Acid rain is totally different from global warming.

I don't particularly like the guy you're arguing with, but these experiments aren't disproving what he is saying
as you can see from your own images, there's minimal difference between ambient CO2 and high CO2, suggesting that there's something else limiting further growth

They also maxed out every plant on nutrients too, so nutrients weren't a limiting factor. Remember, these plants were harvested at only 3 weeks, and already there is a difference. This would only compound with time in real world scenario.
And observe how tiny the 160ppm plants are despite an abundance of every single other growing condition. The climate cultists want us to be closer to 160ppm than to modern ambient levels.

nta and I agree today's values are far from catastrophic, but the real question is about the upper limit.
there is an upper limit, that much is certain. where exactly is that upper limit is a more nuanced conversation. why? well because it's not so clear. at some point there will be some extra effects vs today. how much can we deal with them? how much life starts to get wiped? can we live with that?
the issue with upper limit is that it becomes a resource. if there's a limit you want to get as close as possible to it (because energy is cheaper) but not fuck it up.
thinking people running shit will leave anything on the table is retarded, highschool commie flower power retarded. if it's a resource it will be abused as fuck. question is, how much can it be abused?
as it stands now, we're absolutely fine, but (((they))) know there is an upper limit, that energy requirements for their shit will skyrocket, and that there's no way around it. that's the real issue, actually, the fact that energy that increases carbon is cheaper.

just do it yourself in an aquarium. get fishes, plants, start pumping CO2 and watch fishes die. do it enough times and you get a good idea about the concentration where they start dying. plants grow larger but no more fish in there, they can't survive the conditions.

Your article recommends boosting plant aquariums to over 20,000 ppmv equivalent. 35ppmm CO2 in solution is around 20,000 ppmv. That's around 4 times higher than the highest level Earth's history and about 40 times higher than today.

If the upper limit is a ludicrous number like 20,000ppm then we don't need to worry.
1ppm of of global atmospheric CO2 is 7.8 gigatonnes, or 7,800 million tonnes. To add another 19550ppm, we would need to release over 150,000 gigatonnes of CO2.
At current rates of emission, it's going to take over 4000 years to reach 20,000ppm.
Thats assuming that we don't improve our energy technology/infrastructure in anyway to decarbonise it in the next 4 millennium.

listen, I'm not stating the upper limit, I'm just saying it exists. which is a whole different mindset than thinking it doesn't.
also have no idea if water CO2 has linear relationship to air CO2 concentration. if it has, means we get 4000ppm in air and life starts dying, at least in water. don't know if it's 4000 ppm or 8000 or actually 30000 ppm before water life starts dying. but if it's possible life starts dying at 10x today's values, we have a big problem, with estimated energy use with all the AI bullshit and war games and everything else.

NTA, the downside is that it might have a temporary destabilising effect on weather patterns, but no-one can prove if the apparent increased variability/extremes of weather are down to CO2 changes, land use changes, natural cycles, or, if its a combination of these factors, which ones have the strongest weighting.
When it comes to modelling traditional linear physical systems like rocket launches or the forces acting upon a bridge or a skyscraper, we can simulate and model those things precisely enough to know with 5 or 6 sigma certainty what will happen under X or Y conditions, and direct comparisons and tweaks off factors can be performed.
The global climate is too chaotic and complex for us to be able to simulate a counterfactual reality to ask the question: but how would things look if A had never happened or if we had done B instead. We only have hypotheses which are impossible to test about how responsible CO2 is for apparent variability instead of say land use changes.
It's naive to pretend that the continent-spanning ways in which humans have energy and matter modifying effects on the environment don't have a massive, fixed impact on the climate. Just consider albedo, water runoff, verticality.

If you believe in determinism and that there is no such thing as free will, you just also believe all the arguments underpinning the fact that wind farms change the weather by absorbing kinetic energy from the atmosphere. Every single little microscopic level of how we change the world around us has a direct and fundamental and MACROSCOPIC effect on our immediate and long term environment. It's psychotic and delusional to think that plant food that has existed at 5x today's levels, that was on course to dip below extinction level the next few times that the glaciers advance, is somehow our problem, and not the polluted wild areas and invasive species and contaminated food supplies.
Everything else we ever do has such a bigger effect on everything on our carbon that it doesn't matter, and measures to combat climate change often end up worsening carbon footprints and impoverishing people, which directly lowers theirs proclivity to care for their immediate environment for aesthetic or holistic reasons.

When plants grow faster they need more nutrients which depletes the soil which limits growth and limits how nutritious the plants are to eat which limits animals. Meanwhile rainfall becomes less evenly distributed throughout the year. Instead there will be long periods with a lot of rainfall followed by long periods with little to no rainfall. This requires a lot of adaptation.

The understanding that excessive carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions can have detrimental effects on the planet's climate and ecosystems is based on scientific research and evidence accumulated over many decades. The idea that CO2 is harmful to the environment is not a lie; rather, it is a well-established scientific consensus supported by a vast body of research.

Here's a brief overview of how this understanding developed:

1. **Greenhouse effect:** The greenhouse effect is a natural process whereby certain gases in the Earth's atmosphere, including CO2, trap heat from the sun, keeping the planet warm enough to sustain life. Without this natural greenhouse effect, Earth would be much colder. However, human activities, particularly the burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas, have significantly increased the concentration of CO2 and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, leading to enhanced warming of the planet.

2. **Climate science:** Scientists have been studying the Earth's climate for centuries, but it wasn't until the mid-20th century that the link between CO2 emissions and global warming became more apparent. In the 1960s and 1970s, researchers began to recognize the potential impacts of human-induced climate change, and by the 1980s, scientific consensus was emerging that CO2 emissions from human activities were contributing to global warming.

3. **Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC):** Established in 1988 by the United Nations, the IPCC assesses the scientific literature on climate change and provides comprehensive reports summarizing the current state of knowledge. These reports, based on the work of thousands of scientists from around the world, have consistently highlighted the role of CO2 emissions in driving climate change and the urgent need for mitigation measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

It's a non issue for the rest of the planet too. If my potatoes grow to 80g of carb each instead of 50g of carb, but the micronutrients are simply more diluted, then my 80g potato is technically "less nutrient dense" if you're looking at vitamins and minerals, despite having more macronutrients than the smaller potato.

plants in grown in high CO2 environments are healthier than their control study counterparts. they root deeper and consequently have access to more nutrients than those in a CO2 starved atmosphere do. if plants in high CO2 environments were nutrient poor then all life on earth would have dropped dead of nutrient deficiency during the many millions of years in history when this planet had far, far higher atmospheric CO2 levels

it's not "bad for the plants" it's that plants are, in general, well adapted to current atmospheric CO2. extremely high or extremely low CO2 reduces fecundity. there's a small bump as it increases to about 320-450 ppm depending on the species. after that it crashes quickly.

humans do great when you increase O2 by about 5%, but much more than that and we struggle to function as normal. it's the same with plants and CO2.

a 1000ppm CO2 level wouldn't eradicate plants, but it would/will pretty severely impact our crops.

The greenhouse in this metaphor then would be an atmosphere of sufficient density, ie Earth's.
We can agree that Venus is just as irrelevant a comparison as Mars, because Venus' atmosphere is 90x denser than Earth's.
Any high school physics student can tell you that, at some level, there isn't much difference when it comes to temperature and pressure when it comes to matter.
Just use your ideal gas law equations and assume that Venus' surface pressure is 92,000 mb and is 100% n2 by mass. What temperature would you expect at the surface, even with zero greenhouse effect from CO2's radiative forcing?
Remember, you still have dense clouds of sulphuric acid extending from 30 miles to 42 miles in the atmosphere. Twelve miles of thick cloud constantly covering and insulating the planet. Remember to use what we know about the surfacing warming potential of thick clouds on Earth.

The images in your NASA link show greening globally, lots of it in places with little or no people like siberia and Northern/Western Canada.
There's also the fact that the places in India and China being greened were almost completely arid and bare of vegetation before, so it doesn't take a lot of additional vegetation to create a large % change in leaf area.

Not sure if shill...This is a complex question. It is called climate change for a reason. More CO2 causes more heat transfer and therefore more entropy in our ecosystems. This can cause some extreme weather patterns(drought) and storms: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10742505/ Also, I recommend you learn more about the carbonate cycle and the effects of ocean acidification.

Though the main concern is the CO2 levels reaching a point were permafrost decomposition will rapidly heat the planet due to the methane production.

Anyways, it ain't a lie. CO2 is good for plants, but the potential runaway is not. Generally speaking, most shit humans do is much worse. Our agriculture and waste practices are much more harmful in my opinion.

Overestimated does not mean there's no methane emissions from permafrost. Do a little thought experiment: There's some methane escaping from permafrost now.

You're assuming that. You made that up right now. You haven't read a single study on CO2 enrichment that specifies it has such soil.
Such soil wouldn't be eliminating variables if it negates the benefits of the deeper roots of the CO2 enriched plant. It would constitute the introduction of a variable in favour of the uennriched plant, if the goal is to determine the benefit of CO2 enrichment in an otherwise normal/typical environment.

>The magnitude of the CO2 fertilization effect on terrestrial photosynthesis is uncertain because it is not directly observed and is subject to confounding effects of climatic variability. We apply three well-established eco-evolutionary optimality theories of gas exchange and photosynthesis, constraining the main processes of CO2 fertilization using measurable variables. Using this framework, we provide robust observationally inferred evidence that a strong CO2 fertilization effect is detectable in globally distributed eddy covariance networks. Applying our method to upscale photosynthesis globally, we find that the magnitude of the CO2 fertilization effect is comparable to its in situ counterpart but highlight the potential for substantial underestimation of this effect in tropical forests for many reflectance-based satellite photosynthesis products

Raising global CO2 levels will raise global O2 levels also. O2 is created via photosynthesis and increasing CO2 levels makes photosynthesis more prevalent and efficient

Where does the additional oxegen come from (it must have been bound somewhere before) and if you dare say water, what in your schizo mind gets hydrogenated to bind the excess hydrogen, as there is no known mechanism by which plants produce atmospheric hydrogen, which would almost instantly bind oxygen again and its not either known for plants to bind hydrogen past their finite life in the current age.

What do you think happens RIGHT NOW when plants turn CO2 + H2O into O2 and organic chemistry? The hydrogen is incorporated into sugars, fats and proteins that the plants produce.

Only 3/4 of the hydrogen in animals is bound as water, the other 1/4 exists as free protons or incorporated into other molecules. Why should it be any different in a higher CO2 world?

More photosynthesis = more O2 being released from 6 CO2 + 6 H2O - > C6H12O6 + 6 O2
Do you understand? The only reason that Earth has significant atmospheric O2 is because photosynthesisers have been splitting apart H2O and CO2 for billions of years.

If every photosynthesiser on Earth disappeared tomorrow, then O2 would be gradually depleted, yes?
Thus an icrease in the quantity of photosynthesisers or their rates of photosynthesis will increase O2.

You are getting there ... but slowly but you really are... just one more step.
You have so far correctly determined that the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere is in an equilibrium state mostly dictated by the photosynthetically active mass on the surface. As such it wont change in the grand scheme of things as the surface of earth is constant and so is the flora biomass.
Now regarding where that extra Cs and Hs went... can you think of any deposits that contain alot of H and C, that have formed under special conditions a long time ago ? What would you think happens if you take the above information and imagine the release of the stored C ?
C'mon, almost there my boy !

The flora biomass is NOT a constant, neither is the quantity of ocean-borne photosynthesis. What the hell would make you think the total biomass of photosynthesisers is either stable, constant, or at capacity?

There are lots, but the simplest would be

>Where does the oxygen in that formula come from?
It came from H2O that was split apart with solar energy by photosynthesisers and emitted as a waste gas.

The flora biomass on Earth is one of the least constant things about it. The Sahara desert used to be green. The poles used to be ice-free year round. Higher CO2 and warmer temperatures raise the altitude of the tree line.
Areas too arid today to support much or any flora could be wildly productive under wetter weather patterns.
"The flora biomass of the Earth is constant" what an insanely delusional, self-evidently mistaken assertion.

Numb argument. As ive particularly lined out (and as you very likely knew anyways) the biomass sustained on earth pales in comparisson to fossil deposits.
A little aid for your reasoning: The best estimates provide the figure of 450 Gt C for the current flora. Proven fossil fuel reserves alone would yield more than 4500 Gt C. You do realise that's an order of magnitude, right ?
On top of that, what is your argument ?

We should aspire to control the CO2 levels and we can certainly increase it, but right now it's out of control and we cannot decrease it. We think that it might be a feedback loop that we can't stop and will go extinct because humans are too sensitive. If we cannot decrease it, we cannot control it, and will be filtered.

NASA sets the upper limit for atmospheric CO2 concetration on their spacecraft at 5500ppm and so far no astronauts have died from that or even suffered, so humans couldn't be all that sensitive. You don't even have a CO2 meter in your house so your concern about the issue clearly isn't genuine.

Amazing that NASA has determined that astronauts are capable of doing their difficult work and surviving in perfect health at 5500ppm and then they tell all us that everyone on planet Earth is going to die because CO2 here is 400ppm.
Clearly one of those two must be a lie and it must be the later because astronauts would've dropped dead by now if it were the former.

Explain how he's wrong.
It took 3 centuries of mass industrial scale combustion of fossil fuels to raise co2 from 280ppm to 400ppm. Perhaps we MIGHT reach 700ppm by the end of this century if it keeps rising by about 2.5ppm per year.
700ppm is still a long way from 5500.
I happen to have CO2 monitors in my home. In my bedroom where my wife and I sleep, the concentration reaches over 900 overnight, even with the window ajar. With the window shut and no ventilation, it reaches over 1600 overnight.

“Our emission of greenhouse gases from burning fossil fuels is reducing the nutritional quality of our food,” she says.

Ebi directly refuted an idea that’s been floating around for a while about the effect of CO2 on food production and global hunger. Technically, plants need CO2 to survive: They bring it in, break it down, and rely on carbon to grow. Some researchers have claimed that more CO2 means that more plants will be able to grow, and higher CO2 levels will then help solve food insecurity.

That, according to Ebi, is a hugely, dangerously wrong. Not only will climate change and global warming make agricultural productivity and much more unstable, but when plants take in an excess of CO2, their chemical makeup changes in a way that that’s harmful to the humans and animals that depend on them for nutrition: higher concentrations of CO2, increases the synthesis of carbohydrates like sugars and starches, and decrease the concentrations of proteins and nutrients like zinc, iron, and B-vitamins. “This is very important for how we think about food security going forward,” Ebi says.
