Carbon Dioxide deserves to have millions more Friends. And why is this? Greening the planet for one thing. Gardens must have Carbon Dioxide as do Crops of all kinds. Your forests must get CO2. Greenhouses must get it. For the survival of man, we must get Carbon Dioxide.
“Fossil Fuels Are the Greenest Energy Sources” by Dr. Indur Goklany is an example of our work. Did you know that up to 50% of the globe has experienced an increase in vegetation and that 70% of the greening is attributed to plant fertilization by carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels? Or that nearly 200,000 square kilometers of the southern Sahara have been converted to a lush grassland from desert?
Few have heard that doubling atmospheric CO2 from its current concentration of 420 ppm would significantly increase agricultural productivity and have little effect on the climate.
It appears that some of this knowledge has reached Canada because Alberta’s ruling Unified Conservative Party (UCP) recently approved a resolution that promotes the salutary effects of CO2 and endorses an outright rejection of the national government’s net zero policy.
“It is estimated that (atmospheric) CO2 levels need to be above 150 ppm (parts per million) to ensure the survival of plant life,” says the proposal for a resolution eventually adopted by the party. “The Earth needs more CO2 to support life and to increase plant yields, both of which will contribute to the health and prosperity of all Albertans.”
The UCP calls for abandoning CO2’s designation as a pollutant and for recognizing the gas as “a foundational nutrient for all life on Earth.”
The UCP’s action was not well received by the likes of DeSmog, an online platform of climate alarmists, which called the party’s resolution “a brazen display of climate science denial that harkens back to the 1990s fossil fuel industry playbook.”
