And no, beyond a certain level it’s not good for plants, either. That's another myth.

But yeah, let's keep burning gas and oil, and eating meat.

EDIT: see my addendum downthread.

Locking at the state of the world, my suspicion is, that the higher CO2 levels have already had non-negligible negative effects on human brain capacities.

How can we collectively b so stupid?
