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.

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.”

The test that exonerates CO2

The test that exonerates CO2 By Javier Vinós Most people don’t have a clear understanding of the greenhouse effect (GHE). It is not complicated to understand, but it is usually not well explained. It is often described as “heat-trapping,” but that is incorrect. Greenhouse gases (GHG) do not trap heat, even if [...]

Holocene CO2 and the earlier IPCC Reports

Holocene CO2 and the earlier IPCC Reports As I noted in my earlier post, “The IPCC AR6 Report Erases the Holocene,” the IPCC does not like to discuss the correlation between CO2 and temperature during the Holocene. It destroys their hypothesis that greenhouse gases and volcanos control Earth’s climate. Below is Javier’s plot [...]
