This is also a greenhouse effect: greenhouses often increase CO2 levels.

Warmth + CO2 = better conditions for plants to grow, even with same soil and water

ADD water and introduce grazing animals and plants will do even better. Desert-like lands will be converted to pasture lands and support trees.

The truth is the green new deal is impossible without massive reduction in population and living standards. For various reasons, the promise of wind and solar has not been realized. And, the all-electric car and high speed rail have fallen flat.

At this time, it looks more efficient to pursue a combination of sequestering CO2 produced at coal-fired electricity-producing plants and certifying off-sets such as new growth of trees.

" Desert-like lands will be converted to pasture lands and support trees.”

True that

It is ice ages, I believe, that cause deserts to grow. The ice becomes locked up at the poles and drawn away from savannahs.

At least the science I was taught back in high school(1970s)
