So, Winn, what do you know about plants? Nada. You pull those theories out of yer rear end? I think so. How simplistic to assume high CO2 levels mean better plant growth... The fact of the matter is that global warming alters weather patterns and puts stress on the ecospheres (causing slowing of plant growth, crop destruction, from droughts, wildfires etc..). Also, higher CO2 levels shrink the pores in leaves that are involved in evapotranspiration. A good degree of cooling comes from water arising from evapotranspiration. Less evapotranspiration means more warming (about 1/4 of global warming is attributed to it). I can site studies from qualified scientists backing this information up. Can you?
