Higher CO2 = faster plant growth = abundant food source = flourishing life. Ice ages = extinction. Ice ages = low CO2. Geology 101.

Not always Pete. In fact rapid
co2 = warmer temps = more extreme weather events = faster plant death = famine = struggling life. This has occurred before Pete. Mainly at the end of eras.1 reply 0 retweets 6 likes -

So now Climate Scientologists are adjusting the Geology textbooks? Warmer temperatures do NOT lead to plant death and famine. Medieval and Roman warm periods are marked by population explosions, abundant food, and flourishing civilizations.

Medieval and Roman warm periods weren't warming as rapidly as we're seeing here Pete. That's when it becomes an issue, if you want to warm like when we were being warmed in those times we'd need to at least cut our emissions down to 5/8'ths of what we're emitting now.

The extreme weather events (floods, droughts, etc.) are detrimental to many ecosystems, and are causing famines, and forest fires.

If the global average temperature changes 4-5 degrees C during thousands of years as before/after the ice age, organisms can adapt, e.g. by moving. If this temperature change occurs rapidly, however (like in 100-200 years), many organisms will not cope: coral reefs, plants, etc.

Evolution is a continuous process, there is no evidence that animals won't be able to adapt or have struggled to adapt thus far. Plants overwhelmingly have shown higher growth rates, Cultivated crop yields are also increasing.

These people who cling to the "Balance of Nature" myth are tiresome. Nature has no "correct" setting.

Unless we are a Simulation. Then it would be expected. And if you believe the odds...
