CO₂ fertilization is no longer a theory tested only in labs. This study confirms it at continental scale: Amazon forests are thriving, not suffering, in a world with more CO₂

Climate Change Is Reducing, Not Increasing Food Costs, Mainstream Media
This Bloomberg piece is nothing more than climate fearmongering; taking disconnected crop shortages from around the world from localized weather events and trying to blame them on climate change, when…
Global Greening From Higher CO2 Hits “Striking” New Heights – but the Mainstream Media Won’t Tell You About It
Significant new evidence has emerged of widespread and significant increases in plant vegetation across the Earth due to the recent rise of the trace gas carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.…
Scientists Report A ‘Striking Global Greening Trend’ Over the Last 42 Years
“Among these significant trends identified using the TST workflow, 76.07% indicated greening, while 23.93% indicated browning. Notably, considering areas (pixels) with NDVI values above 0.15, greening accounted for 85.43% of…
Another New Study Finds Rising CO2 Enhances Planetary Greening and Reduces Drought Risk
“…elevated CO2 concentrations not only boosted vegetation growth through the fertilizer effect but also indirectly enhanced water availability [reducing drought risk] by improving water use efficiency.” – Song et al.,…
New Study: ‘Widespread Increase’ In Plant Transpiration Driven by Increasing CO2 Concentration
The rising CO2 trend over the last 30 years (1990-2020) has been the primary driver of planetary greening, or increases in Leaf Area Index (LAI).
Global Greening Becomes so Obvious That Climate Alarmists Start Arguing We Need to “Save the Deserts”!
The world is ‘greening’ at an astonishing and rapidly growing rate and deserts are shrinking almost everywhere you look.
New Study: 2001-2020 ‘Global Greening Is An Indisputable Fact’ And It’s Driven By CO2 Fertilization
From the NoTricksZone By Kenneth Richard “Our results showed that the global greening was still present in 2001–2020, with 55.15% of areas greening at an accelerated rate…compared with 7.28% of browning.”…
Increased Plant Productivity: The First Key Benefit of Atmospheric CO2 Enrichment
Unfortunately, too many individuals and governments are locked into the false mindset that CO2 is a pollutant and so research has progressed but little on this front of late.
Gratitude for CO2: It Continues to Feed the World
CO2 added to the atmosphere since the industrial era has had no observable impact on rainfall patterns whilst directly helping plants to grow better. In the big climate conferences no…
Forest Degradation A Major Climatic Warming Driver, Study Finds. CO2-Induced Tree Growth Cools?
“The conclusion is that forest managers therefore have some control in climate change over how much the forests entrusted to them heat up and are potentially damaged as a result.…
Fantastic Findings: German Study Shows Added CO2 Has Led To 14% More Vegetation Over Past 100 Years!
Almost everyone with even just a fraction of a science education knows Co2 is fertilizer to vegetation and that the added 100 or so ppm in our atmosphere over the…
Another New Study Says Warming And CO2-Induced Greening Leads To COOLING Of Land Surface Temperatures
Since the 1980s, warming and rising CO2 fertilization have spawned a global-scale greening trend. This leads to an “Earth greening-induced cooling effect” of land surface temperatures.
Claim: The greening of the earth is approaching its limit
An article published today in Science shows that this fertilizing effect of CO2 is decreasing worldwide, according to the text co-directed by Professor Josep Peñuelas of the CSIC at CREAF…
Greening the planet and slouching towards Paris?
Reposted from Dr. Judith Curry’s Climate Etc. Posted on May 14, 2020 by curryja | by Patrick J. Michaels A new paper finds higher than expected CO2 fertilization inferred from…
Why Modern Famine Predictions Failed !

Plant physiology will be major contributor to future river flooding
From The NSF By hoarding water underground, vegetation will help saturate soil, boosting rain runoff Plant physiology will be as significant as climate change in future river flooding. Credit and…
CO2 and crops: NAS vs. science
WUWT regular David Burton writes: One of the most pernicious examples of disinformation promoted by the Climate Industry is the claim that manmade climate change from CO2 emissions threatens agriculture…
Rising carbon dioxide is making the world’s plants more water-wise
From The Conversation July 24, 2017 5.18am EDT Tropical rainforests are among the biggest contributors to the global greening boom. AAP Image/Dave Hunt Rising carbon dioxide is making the world’s…
