As the media is full of reports about record temperatures, the elevated readings likely have a lot to do with thermometers being placed increasingly in urban heat absorbing areas. The recent warming has very little to do with carbon dioxide.
"CO2 is not our enemy," says Professor Scharkova, who was born and educated in Ukraine.
"We in fact have a CO2 deficiency in the world, and it is three to four times lower than the plants would like," says Scharkova. On geological terms, over the last 140 million years, CO2 in the atmosphere is at really near record low levels.
"140 million years ago, it was estimated at 2,500 ppm, or about six times higher. And this also meant a greener and more biodiverse world, according to the professor," writes Report 24.
