Why isn’t increased CO2-levels positive for nature?

485 views

The levels of CO2 in the atmosphere is increasing and have done so for many years. Shouldn’t this have a positive impact on plants etc.?

Maybe not nature including humans, but plants should thrive, right?

Yes, high CO2 levels can promote plant growth so all things being equal it would likely be good. However, all things AREN’T equal. Plants are adapted to their local climate so as climate changes some may not be able to keep up. Of course others that are more adapted will likely replace them and thrive.
