| NASA data shows CO2 is good: Earth significantly greener since 1982 |
| 2026-07-07 |
…sheer weight of actual data. The fear narrative may be ending, but the biosphere is flourishing. NASA satellite data reveal that between 25% and 50% of Earth’s vegetated lands have shown significant greening over the last four decades. This is an expansion of biomass equivalent to twice the area of the continental United States—and COâ‚‚ fertilisation is responsible for roughly 70% of it. The higher atmospheric COâ‚‚ (hovering around 426 ppm) allows leaf pores (stomata) to stay open for less time to absorb carbon. This is nature’s built-in water saver, drastically cutting moisture loss and boosting natural drought resistance. As a result, vegetation is actively reclaiming arid fringes of the Sahel, the Middle East and the Australian Outback. Nature is using this extra airborne fuel to thrive in regions once deemed too barren. Nevertheless, climate bureaucrats are still fixated on economic modeling and their 2050 net zero bank balance target. The planet itself doesn't care. Yet it demonstrates the profound, biological benefits of elevated COâ‚‚. |
