YOURE THERE! FRONT PAGE!

Don't you hate when real science and little things like visible experiments get in the way of hysteria, agendas, and fear mongering.

CO2 is actually an important part of the environment? but its a pollutant a poison. It is killing the planet. It will cause the end of the world.

I may not be a scientist but if my memory serves me correctly plants in day light take in CO2 and breath out oxygen. So will not the increase growth of plants not only produce more food but also help balance any man made CO2?

Nah... it more fun believing the world is coming to end then look at real science.

Back in the days when there were really big animals, there was lots of food for them to eat. I always wondered why they got so big, now I know it was all the plant food.

It's also why real greenhouses are able to grow such big pretty plants and sell them ... CO2 does the trick.

@Bill-tb

A few fallacies there.

1. Even with a 500% increase in CO2, animals will not grow beyond the gravity imposed limit, which is just a little above the elephant for land based and a little above the blue whale for sea based. They are subject to change though.

The reason you don't find any sea based animals larger than the blue whale is that the sea hasn't been this big forever. Pretty much every single mythology states that the world once had shallow seas. As that is everything from north american indian mythology, to Incan mythology and Babylonian mythology, you can't dismiss it out of hand. No scientist has proved them wrong anyway, and until that, one has to accept the evidence says we had shallow seas.

2. Plants from greenhouses are big because they get overwatered. That is also the reason they taste less. Remove the excess water and they will be on average the same size, and taste nearly the same, as your average fruit or vegetable.

Can you maintain sea sponge like this alive in a coral reef aquarium ? On this site they propagate sea sponge, but from what I have seen they dont last if they are removed from water?
