Rebecca must have stopped taking her meds. 🙄🙄🙄
Plants will be happy but my allergies may not. More active plants means more aggressive growth.
OMG, now I know why we don’t need more CO2, the triffids are coming!!!🙄
“ Stop. Please make it stop.”
Why do you keep posting it, then?
“than ever” is a very short time. Than ever is defined as less than a hundred year. We have a 4+ billion year old planet. We have had far more CO2 and far less. We have had a far warmer planet and a far colder planet. We are not at an extreme. And our planet is constantly moving from one extreme to another for a host of reasons. Climate is just a scam to sell carbon tokens. Most of the world is not buying it. And we should not either.
BTW, I was wondering if they mean there is not enough plant life to suck up all the co2 in the atmosphere and by putting more into the air we have more co2 than the plant life can absorb. But if the existing ppm is 450-500 and I was told the plants are starving. Should more co2 be good for plants there by not starving them and allowing them to thrive better. So is there a growth lag that is not being accounted for yet?

No, it is not at its highest concentrations ever.
This is an abject lie
I blame it on bringing millions from 3rd world levels of CO2 emissions up to 1st world levels by importing them in droves.
The largest CULT in human history.
Hurray for global warming. Hurray for carbon dioxide. I burp as often as I can to do my part.
“Than ever?” How would they know?
Hunga Tonga mega-eruption effects are still being felt after 2 years.
More lies from NPR. The only people who listen to it are those who are totally brainwashed leftists anyway.
Present CO2 concentration is 400- 420 ppm.
"During the Paleozoic Era, CO2 levels were as high as 4,000 parts per million (ppm) around 300 million years ago. During the Ordovician Period, around 500 million years ago, CO2 levels were around 3,000-9,000 ppm."
Because...science.
I thought carbon monoxide was the bad one?
When did that change?
It is great for the trees, grass and plants because they have more food to turn into OXYGEN. Sheesh you NPRites are STUPID!
This is absolute unadulterated bullshit. The geologic record shows CO2 levels are below average levels in past. Levels have been 20x greater in past, over 7000 ppm, and there was no runaway global warming.
They are measuring the current rise from historically low levels.
If it’s bad for the Climate the Climate will fix it. That’s what it does.
Ignorance and stupidity must be superpowers, because those that have them never seem to lose them.
CO2 is NOT at the highest levels ever, far from it. But even if that’s true for the last couple hundred years, you still have to deal with the fact that measurements taken decades or more ago were not made in exactly the same locations or elevations, and were done with different (and likely less precise) devices.
It was certainly much higher at many points in not just human history, but Earth’s, and life seems to have done just fine.
Who even knows if higher temps from higher CO2 are bad - I’ll bet that the dinosaurs wouldn’t have thought so.
Finally, it’s not even in our control except to a very small (and statistically meaningless) degree. If she and other climate tyrants want to affect the temperature, they’d have a better shot at doing so by having a conversation with the Sun.
F’ing idiots.
Give trees the vote!
