CO2 is already just 3/10,000 ths of the atmosphere.
Of course if they could get rid of it all, we would die from lack of oxygen just before all plant life became extinct.
That's what it would be without mankind. Instead it is 4/10,000.
Your second statement is correct. Somewhere below 2/10,000 plants start dying off. We are in a geological era of very low CO2 and anything we add is helpful.
