re: #279 Talking Point Detective

Somehow she fails to mention that to the extent that plant growth is stimulated in increased CO2 (an unproven hypothesis in real-world environments let alone in all experimental studies), they require increased water and fertilizer when climate change would make them less available.

And here’s another inconvenient fact the durr-hurr-CO2-is-plant-food dribbling idiots overlook:

Photosynthesis in the leafy plants we depend on for oxygen and food will stop working if current trends continue

You might be surprised to learn that photosynthesis for many leafy plants (e.g., the ones we depend on for food) stops at a temperature well below the boiling point of water. The magic number? 104 degrees Fahrenheit, or 40 degrees Centrigrade.

This is why I predict the human race (barring a technological miracle) will be extinct in 200 years.
