I understand the trees that grow fast tend to be less dense and more porous. I could imagine a similar phenomenon in all plants. The CO2 allows them to grow faster and so there is less time for them to take up minerals, i.e. less mineral dense.

So that means grass clipping burgers and chicken (plant) nuggets aren’t nutritious either. All they’re good for is to get rid of the grass clippings.

Thanks for getting me to investigate.

Turns out they have global global atmospheric CO2 measurements that mirror Moana Lua.

You can click on the image to be taken to the source documentation.

What's the next straw you want to grasp at?

Let’s cut to the important thing...does this mean my lawn will not be a dark, luxurious green color? Will the weeds thrive more than usual and out-compete my bluegrass? On the other hand, will my lawn grow more slowly and need less mowing? That could mean more time for golf. But what about the deer that graze on my lawn as winter sets in and they start getting real hungry? If my grass is less nutritious, will some of those 26 giant rats die?

It’s all so complicated.

I do, actually. Have a point?

Or do you mean transpiration and guttation?

Perhaps the role and action of stoma and the structures of the parenchyma?

Or are you speaking of cellular respiration?

“I do, actually. Have a point?”

Then, why did you not mention it.

There’s some there, there, but go back to times earth’s history when C02 was was order of magnitude higher and terrestrial plant growth was dense and robust.

“My point was right up front: this is poppycock.”

Any discussion of plant growth omitting respiration is poppycock.

It is how plants live and grow.

I followed the science, and it led me right to George Soros and Klaus Schwab’s banks.

Decreasing CO2 result in less crops period.

Ridiculous. Greenhouses and indoor farms have been pumping in CO2 for decades. Plants grow bigger and faster with high CO2.

It’s shocking that your statement even has to be said.
