>CO2 is bad because it makes plants grow better and that leads to more wildfires
Why is science so incredibly stupid these days?

Presumably this is meant to be one reason and not the main one, but yes, changes positive or negative can still mess with nature in weird and unpredictable ways. This is also why a lot of forest growing efforts are huge messes- they plant higher density than is natural and make wildfires worse.

Thats not even true tho, plants use water more efficiently when they have access to greater levels of CO2, so they're less likely to dry out and become susceptible to fire

now say that again but slower
>increase water efficiency
>same water allows for more biomass
you'll get there one day!

Both can be true in different times and places. A lot of biomes go through cyclical/seasonal dry periods, even in otherwise wet, cooler, more temperate areas like northern Canada, Scotland, Scandinavia etc. Soaking wet most of the time but after cold dry winters, after all the snow melts and runs off, the dead vegetation from the last growing season oftne burns away. In varying levels of natural origin, it should be stated. Most wildfires are caused by human activity or negligence, whereas a lot of environmentalists try to use uncategorized data to claim that the natural risk of wildfires even outside of human intervention is rising intrinsically, not that we are simply getting worse at managing our environment.

That is not science, is academia hijacked by jews who are nothing but a bunch of imbecile morons.

those dry periods would be shortened by the way CO2 increases the plants' ability to retain water.

More green cover shading the ground would also in turn reduce the rate at which the ground dries out

Imagine being a level of retarded where you confuse a lady journalists article with science.
