Did you know that plants cause global warming, and as plants grow bigger, stronger, and healthier due to increased CO2 they will kill us all?
We are, of course, doomed. Because we are always doomed. Gaia is crying right now.
How does their argument go? How, on Earth, could more plants absorbing more CO2 be a bad thing?
It goes like this:
Increasing CO2 in the atmosphere leads to more plants growing more quickly
Plants don’t absorb CO2 at 100% levels–some goes back into the atmosphere as respiration
More plants mean more respiration, which means that CO2 levels increase when plants respire
Therefore more plants mean more respiration and hence more CO2
You see the problem, right? Plants pull out, on net, vast quantities of CO2 from the air. Simply because they release a fraction of that back into the atmosphere doesn’t mean they are contributing to CO2 levels. They are, in fact, decreasing it by quite a bit. The more plants, the less CO2 on net.

They knew “Global Warming” was BS, so they had to rename their crusade to “Climate Change”, because as anyone who has ever looked at the record highs/lows for days can tell you, the weather was ALWAYS very stable before SUVs.

It does no good to fight against the cult of climate change with bad arguments.
Now I know why Neanderthals went extinct, they started to farm and it killed them! 🤓
I thought it was from smoking.
I have long suspected that ficus plant in the corning of the dentist office was plotting to kill me.
“Plants cause global warming now”
And they are transphobic and a threat to our “democracy”.
I’ll be sure to plant a whole lots more. Got some more peppers and tomato plants. Cucs and zucchini is up. Strawberries everyday. Corn not sprouting yet.
Why don’t they just say the quiet part out loud. “Humans cause global warming and there’s too many of them on the planet.”
Either you’re an idiot or you forgot the /sarc tag.
Trees are known to have thrown orcs. And goblins. Truly. We are approaching the ent times long prophesied.
I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT; “IT’S A TRIFFID THAT SPITS POISON AND KILLS”!
