A new study based on satellite observations, just released globally by Australia’s science agency the CSIRO, is likely to cause a stir among anti-carbon dioxide global warming alarmist circles. According to the study, over the past three decades the rise in atmospheric CO2 has contributed significantly to the greening of our planet.
In fact, rising levels of CO2, the gas exhaled by animals and inhaled by plants, which in turn exhale Oxygen in a feedback cycle, has been found to have supercharged the growth of plant life enormously.
According to a summary of the CSIRO research, increased levels of CO2 have helped boost green foliage across the world’s arid regions over the past 30 years through a process called CO2 fertilisation.
