🗑️ 🧵 CO2 makes plants healthier

Anonymous No. 16141752

Good news everyone, rice, which is possibly the world's most important agricultural crop, not only grows better under CO2 enhanced atmospheric conditions, it also becomes more disease resistant when atmospheric CO2 is increased.

>Effects of elevated CO2 on resistant and susceptible rice cultivar and its primary host, brown planthopper

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8076292/

>The elevated CO2 (eCO2) has positive response on plant growth and negative response on insect pests. As a contemplation, the feeding pattern of the brown plant hopper, Nilaparvata lugens Stål on susceptible and resistant rice cultivars and their growth rates exposed to eCO2 conditions were analyzed. The eCO2 treatment showed significant differences in percentage of emergence and rice biomass that were consistent across the rice cultivars, when compared to the ambient conditions. Similarly, increase in carbon and decrese in nitrogen ratio of leaves and alterations in defensive peroxidase enzyme levels were observed, but was non‐linear among the cultivars tested. Lower survivorship and nutritional indices of N. lugens were observed in conditions of eCO2 levels over ambient conditions. Results were nonlinear in manner. We conclude that the plant carbon accumulation increased due to eCO2, causing physiological changes that decreased nitrogen content. Similarly, eCO2 increased insect feeding, and did alter other variables such as their biology or reproduction.

SPOILER:

In the next 1-10 years science will GMO plants to uptake much more CO2 than before. This will result in MASSIVE increase in yields of all enhanced plants, faster growing timber as well as food crops. This along with extensive replanting of forest with GMO super trees will negate all human generated CO2 and then some. This was always the plan and will only be made public once the climate hoax fails completely which has already begun. Ironically Golden Rice is a model for such an advancement. Screencap it.

Unfortunately plants are not the only thing that wants to live on this planet.
In addition to that plants have hostorically adapted to the availability of CO2 and variation of the density of stomata has been recorded to be proportional to availability of CO2 for evolutionary periods.
This means, given time on an evolutionary scale, plants will adapt and regress to their comfy zone.
Unfortunately the changes we are causing are not happening on a evolutionary timescale because what we are releasing on a single day took ages of unimpeded growth and deposition in the absence of lignine consuming microorganisms to form.
On top of that photosynthesis in most plants during our period is thylakoid limited. At this point the derivate of the response curve is already quite low and once its in Pi regeneration limited CO2 concentration ranges the derivative is literally 0.
But sadly all explaining is in vain when the recipient is either numb or doesn't want to know but rather justify their own actions or agitate.

This is one of the examples of the already mentioned >>16159779 numb people. Fauna in our age, conversely to what some wannabe environmentalists like to pretend, does hardly fix any carbon past it reaching it's full potential for a given environment. A point after which it will remain in an equilibrium of release through decay and uptake.
Even if we experienced the conditions that lead to the original formation of fossile carbon formation again (god beware), it would still be delusional to believe this process could halt let alone reverse accumulation of CO2 in the atmosphere, as earths surface is limited and the surface needed to absorb the current man made emission would need to be 400 times that.
But again: Dumb people don't even understand how excel or calculators work and have no intuition either. Discrepancies this large should cause a normal functioning humans intuition to prompt for investigation.

plants require less moisture to function in higher CO2 environments because of the way stomata work, so they're less susceptible to drought when atmospheric CO2 is higher than it is currently.

Unless you believe that the photosynthesis of all plants in the world is inhibited by factors other than carbon dioxide, then the Libby's minimum principle cannot deny the significance of more carbon dioxide for photosynthesis. Even if the growth of plants in the world is inhibited for various reasons, sufficient carbon dioxide can unleash the maximum potential of plants when subjected to growth inhibition.
By the way, did you know that most of the world's photosynthesis is driven by marine plankton rather than cacti from the Sahara Desert? In fact, the photosynthesis of plants worldwide increases synchronously with the rise of carbon dioxide.

That's exactly what it means. Your article does not refute that. From your own article

>Researchers that studied hundreds of plant species between 1980 and 2017 found that most unfertilized terrestrial ecosystems are becoming deficient in nutrients, particularly nitrogen. They attributed this decrease in nutrients to global changes, including rising temperatures and CO2 levels.

>Griffin’s work also found that the temperature response of nitrogen fixation is independent from the temperature response of photosynthesis, which involves enzymes made with nitrogen. Higher temperatures can make these enzymes less efficient. Rubisco is the key enzyme that helps turn carbon dioxide into carbohydrates in photosynthesis, but as temperatures go up, it “relaxes” and the shape of its pocket that holds the CO2 gets less precise. Consequently, one fifth of the time, the enzyme winds up fixing oxygen instead of carbon dioxide, lowering the efficiency of photosynthesis and wasting the plant’s resources. With an even greater temperature increase, Rubisco can completely deactivate.

>Warmer winters and a longer growing season also help the pests, pathogens, and invasive species that harm vegetation. During longer growing seasons, more generations of pests can reproduce as warmer temperatures speed up insect life cycles, and more pests and pathogens survive over warm winters. Rising temperatures are also driving some insects to invade new territories, sometimes with devastating effects for the local plants.

>Higher temperatures and an increase in moisture also make crops more vulnerable. Weeds, many of which thrive in heat and elevated CO2, already cause about 34 percent of crop losses; insects cause 18 percent of losses, and disease 16 percent. Climate change will likely magnify these losses.

>>16171593
>>16172951
>Many crops start to experience stress at temperatures above 32° to 35°C, although this depends on crop type and water availability. Models show that each degree of added warmth can cause a 3 to 7 percent loss in the yields of some important crops, such as corn and basedbeans.

>In addition, an increase in temperature speeds up the plant lifecycle so that as the plant matures more quickly, it has less time for photosynthesis, and consequently produces fewer grains and smaller yields.

>Climate change will bring more frequent and severe extreme weather events, including extreme precipitation, wind disturbance, heat waves, and drought. Extreme precipitation events can disturb plant growth, particularly in recently burned forests, and make plants more vulnerable to flooding and soils to erosion. More frequent high winds can stress tree stands.

>Climate change is also expected to bring more combined heat waves and droughts, which would likely offset any benefits from the carbon fertilization effect. While crop yields often decrease during hot growing seasons, the combination of heat and dryness could cause maize yields to fall by 20 percent in some parts of the US, and 40 percent in Eastern Europe and southeast Africa. In addition, the combination of heat and water scarcity may reduce crop yields in places like the northern US, Canada, and Ukraine, where crop yields are projected to increase because of warmer temperatures.

>CO2
While some crop yields may increase, rising CO2 levels affect the level of important nutrients in crops. With elevated CO2, protein concentrations in grains of wheat, rice and barley, and in potato tubers decreased by 10 to 15 percent in one study. Crops also lose important minerals including calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, and zinc. A 2018 study of rice varieties found that while elevated CO2 concentrations increased vitamin E, they resulted in decreases in vitamins B1, B2, B5 and B9.

>And, counterintuitively, the CO2-fueled increase in plant growth may result in less carbon storage in soil. Recent research found that plants have to draw more nutrients from the soil to keep up with the added growth triggered by carbon fertilization. This stimulates microbial activity, which ends up releasing CO2 into the atmosphere that might otherwise have stayed in the soil. The findings challenge the long-held belief that as plants grow more due to increased CO2, the additional biomass would turn into organic matter and soils could increase their carbon storage.

It helps if you actually read your sources.

He described people with God-complex as being aloof, self-important, overconfident, auto-erotic, inaccessible, self-admiring, and exhibitionistic, with fantasies of omnipotence and omniscience. He observed that these people had a high need for uniqueness.

>200 pounds of rice per person annually
1 pound of rice is 1700 calories, so that one crop provides more than half the calorie needs for the entire planet.
And ppl still shill the idea that "oh no theres too many ppl we're all gonna starve to death.
Rice is only the 3rd largest crop globally, wheat and corn are larger

The amount of people that the Earth can support is not solely dependent on how much food can be raised. The higher the population the more strain is put in ecosystem services which provide and estimated 33 trillion dollars worth of services and sustain the natural environment.

life on earth has survived every condition its been put through for over a billion years, its not fragile. co2 has no effect on the ecosystem other than making plants grow faster and use water more efficiently

They also export rice to California. If you look at the imports and exports of most countries you will see very similar lists. People make money shipping out the same good that other people make money shipping in. Don't try to make sense of the economy.

not a significant amount compared to what California exports

So? If they import more than the export then why export? If they export mort than they import then why import? It would make more sense to export only your excess and import only what you need, so why do we do it? Because sending the exact same goods back and forth makes some guy some money. The entire economy is like that. Lots of things that don't make any sense whatsoever being carried out by people who are trying to hoard paper.

The only rice that California imports is fancy foreign brand name foreign imports that are sold to foreigners that have immigrated to California. A lot of the time its rice that was originally exported from the USA.

in 50 years science will change and we will extra burn oil and coal to generate co2.
Newspaper will be full of low co2 warning and how humanity will end if we dont rise it.

Hope thats how it turns out, I'd really like to see nature performing at maximum efficiency with 1500-2000ppm. As it currently stands it'll be centuries before 4 digit CO2 will be achieved,

I really hate the climate argument. The well is not just poisoned but it's filled with pure fluorine.
I find it kinda white pilling that nature helps clean up co2. Does that mean we should just infinitely add more? No that's fucking stupid. We should try out best to not put foreign gasses into the air we breathe

whats stupid is irrationally presuming that there is infinite carbon on earth to be added. also presuming the co2 has any negative properties when theres only evidence that it has a positive effect on the environment

Yes, if you're supportive of bugs eating our crops, go for it. This study sounds dangerously supportive of "look, co2 increases insects, so we should eat them!"

Its worth noting that plants cool the planet because they capture and store solar energy without reemitting it at any wavelength. Some of this energy can be stored for up to a billion years or more before its rereleased. Adding CO2 to the atmosphere amplifies the rate at which plants can capture solar energy because CO2 is plant food.
Thats why adding CO2 to the atmosphere has resulted in a cooling trend rather than the warming one that popsci goyslop soiyence predicts.
