STUDY: Excess CO2 is greening the planet, not killing it
09/21/2021 / By Ethan Huff
It did not get much coverage at the time, but a 2016 study found that carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are good for the planet and have helped to “green” it over the past 30 years.
Contrary to what the climate alarmists say, greenhouse gases are not destroying our earth. Some 32 authors from 24 institutions in eight countries agree that the roughly 70 percent increase in CO2 that has entered the atmosphere over the past several decades has helped the planet rather than hurt it.
“The amount of vegetation growing on the earth has been increasing every year for at least 30 years,” reports Climate Depot. “The evidence comes from the growth rate of plants and from satellite data.”
The paper in question includes satellite data collected over a long period of time. It reveals that over the past 30 years, green vegetation all around the world has increased by 14 percent, which would not have been possible without CO2.
