Why the CO₂ theory can’t be allowed to fall down

Director Martin Durkin and producer and podcaster Tom Nelson, both known for the award-winning documentary Climate: The Movie, launched the initiative GorillaScience last year. On their YouTube channel, they expose the many lies being told about the climate.

Climate Intelligence (Clintel) is an independent foundation informing people about climate change and climate policies.

In their latest video, “3 Cheers for CO₂!”, they discuss what may be the biggest climate lie of all: the role of CO₂. The main points made by the creators are:

  1. CO₂ is wrongly labeled as a problem
    It is a natural and essential gas for plant growth, unjustly portrayed as a “polluting enemy” misunderstood by alarmists.

  2. Carbon dioxide promotes plant growth and food production
    Increased CO₂ levels lead to better crop growth and higher food production — a positive effect that, according to the video, receives little attention in the public climate debate.

  3. Climate policy is ideologically driven
    The demonization of CO₂ is not based on scientific consensus but motivated by political and anti-capitalist beliefs.

  4. Overestimation of risks and underestimation of benefits
    The creators argue that climate scientists and policymakers catastrophically exaggerate the negative impact of CO₂, while the agricultural and ecological benefits (such as “CO₂ fertilization”) are hardly acknowledged.

  5. A call to revalue CO₂ in policy
    The central argument is for a reassessment of climate policy. CO₂ should not be penalized or restricted but rather appreciated for its role in sustaining the planet and agriculture.

As Martin Durkin states in this short clip:
“This is a theory too much depends on. It must not be allowed to fall.”
