Seriously, isn't the breathing cycle taught in schools anymore? Plant life inhales CO2 and exhales O. Animal/fish/birds/humans/etc. inhale O and exhale CO2.

But adding too much CO2 can damage plants. Just think of it with your brain: If someone gives you a scoop of ice cream, you're fine. But too much ice cream and you die. Same thing with plants. We give too much CO2 to plants, and they suffer. CO2 levels are rising beyond pre industrial balance, so plants are going to start struggling. Also, climate change is still another issue. I'm sure you know how that works. Storms which destroy homes and crops, as well as diseases harmful to humans.

And yet there's no sign of CO2 oversaturation happening in plants. Only threats to plant life are environmentalicases driving railroad nails into trees to stop chainsaws or worse burning down whole forests and dumbass policies like Gavin Newscum who caused the destruction of a bunch of Joshua Trees for damn reason.

Nah! Really?

Basically, the reality is complex. Plants might get SOME benefits from excess CO2, such as increased growth. HOWEVER, plants lack nitrogen. A fixation process occurs where Bacteria get carbon from the plant and then fix nitrogen so the plants can have it. Having too much CO2 in the air will make plants focus on mostly eating the CO2. This can dilute the nitrogen proportional to CO2 inside the plant, and this means plants will start failing. Rising temperatures are another problem. Rising temperatures will mean plants will grow for a longer time and use more water, which will result in drier soils. And as a result, plants would later not be able to release moisture into the air. Higher temperatures can also attract new insects, destroying remaining plants. Climate change through CO2 can make plants lose important minerals in calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, and zinc.

What I just wrote is real science.
