I am a retired plant scientist. Over the years I have commented on the essential role that CO2 plays in photosynthesis, the basis of virtually all life on Earth. In the last two years I have ...
Global warming, a topic that’s simultaneously about science and politics. The media loves to spin a nice, tidy solution: stop burning fossil fuels, cut CO2, and voilà — problem solved! Except, there’s ...
Long-term data from real forests indicate leaf stomata constrain gains: carbon uptake is traded for water, keeping biomass and storage uneven.
American forests are important sources of carbon sequestration, storing millions of tons of carbon dioxide each year. However, a unique experiment led by Peter Reich, University of Michigan professor ...
A study examining the effects of higher temperatures on soil shows that warming alone does not increase levels of carbon dioxide emitted from the soil. Instead, higher temperatures combined with more ...
The use of extra carbon dioxide (CO2) in commercial greenhouses to aid plant growth is being touted online to falsely imply climate-change warnings are a “scam”. Experts say while CO2 can help some ...
Greenhouse gas concentrations increased by a record amount in 2024 as more carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide became locked in Earth's atmosphere, a World Meteorological Organization report ...
The claim: Greenhouse CO2 supplementation shows climate change is a 'scam' An Oct. 29 Facebook post (direct link, archive link) shows a large turbine-like object hanging inside of a greenhouse. "If ...
There's nothing quite like going for a walk on a bright, spring day. But basking in the sunshine could soon be a thing of the past. That's because it has emerged that experts are planning on dimming ...
In the battle against climate change, controversial experiments are set to take place in Britain within the next five years. The UK government's Advanced Research and Invention Agency (ARIA) has ...
