Back in the 1970s, the “climate crisis” was that because of carbon dioxide emissions, we were entering a new ice age ...

I remember those false headlines, opposite of current false headlines about global warming.

There's a current video on YouTube where a guy randomly asks people - where do trees get their materials to grow. Most think it is from the ground. Nope, it is from CO2 in the atmosphere. As far back as a couple hundred years ago, scientists measured the mass of a container before growing a tree, and measured it after the tree grew. Proved that the extra mass was extracted from the atmosphere.

Plants need CO2 in order to grow!
