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.”
