Posted on 16 Days Ago by Ron Clutz There was a time when our leaders appealed to reason and common sense: But today, CO2 Fever is upon us, and there is no CO2 rumor too outrageous to be broadcast, repeated and exaggerated. Just in the last few hours, we have these headlines (from Google News) threatening global warming: Climate change clips wings of migratory birds Miami and New Orleans will sink Global warming could lead to worldwide wars Coral reefs are dying 25 million Americans could lose their homes to global warming and rising seas Ocean food chains will collapse Climate change major threat to global economic stability Etc., etc. Etc. Meanwhile, the good news about CO2 is not mentioned in the press, unless you look very hard for it. London 12 October: In an important new report published today by the Global Warming Policy Foundation, former IPCC delegate Dr Indur Goklany calls for a reassessment of carbon dioxide , which he says has many benefits for the natural world and for humankind. Dr Goklany said: “Carbon dioxide fertilises plants, and emissions from fossil fuels have already had a hugely beneficial effect on crops, increasing yields by at least 10-15%. This has not only been good for humankind but for the natural world too, because an acre of land that is not used for crops is an acre of land that is left for nature”. http://www.thegwpf.org/climate-doomsayers-ignore-benefits-of-carbon-dioxide-emissions/ In the Forward, world-renowned physicist Freeman Dyson says this: “To any unprejudiced person reading this account, the facts should be obvious: that the non-climatic effects of carbon dioxide as a sustainer of wildlife and crop plants are enormously beneficial, that the possibly harmful climatic effects of carbon dioxide have been greatly exaggerated, and that the benefits clearly outweigh the possible damage.” The full document can be accessed here: http://www.thegwpf.org/content/uploads/2015/10/benefits1.pdf CO2 hysteria is addictive.
