With atmospheric CO₂ hovering around 426 ppm, nature is thriving in arid regions once considered inhospitable.
The vegetation is marching back into the some of the world’s harshest desert environments. Earth's biosphere is quietly demonstrating a profound, measurable benefit from higher CO₂. These fringe areas are more resilient and greener, in a world that is also more water-efficient. Fresh green cover is actively reclaiming the fringes of the Sahel (the Sahara’s southern edge), the Middle East and the Australian Outback.
An 8% reduction in the Sahel (the Sahara’s southern edge) since the 1980s means 700,000 square kilometres of formerly barren sand wastes have turned green. This is an exciting real-world reincarnation of James Algar's 1963 epic documentary, 'The Living Desert', filmed in the Sonoran Desert near Tuscon, Arizona.
This is the natural world fighting back. Since 1960, global food production has increased by over 250% to 390% (depending on the index). Most of this is from the Green Revolution—the arrival of fertilisers, tractors and genetics. But atmospheric CO₂ - rising from 315 ppm to 426 ppm - is a silent yet profound tailwind behind every new hectare being harvested.
It's the ultimate irony: that a climate change agenda treated CO₂ as an agent of starvation. Instead, the fundamental biology shows it is still the primary engine of agricultural abundance and drought resilience.
When you break down the plant science, the results are stunning:
* C3 plants (95% of all plant species): Rice, wheat, soybeans and potatoes have increased yields by 30% to over 50%. Their photosynthetic mechanisms are structurally starved at lower baseline levels; extra CO₂ accelerates their growth directly.
* C4 plants: Maize (corn), sorghum and sugarcane have increased yields by up to 10%, alongside massive efficiency gains during dry spells.
* Root and tuber crops: Potatoes and sweet potatoes show explosive underground growth, as their large sinks efficiently store the excess carbohydrates produced by accelerated photosynthesis.
Studies compiled by organisations like the USDA Agricultural Research Service show potato yields increasing by 50% to over 100% under elevated CO₂ when water is abundant. Crucially, this atmospheric enrichment also triggers a 10% to 40% reduction in plant water loss because leaf stomata don't need to open as wide to take in carbon.
CO₂ isn't the code red disaster they warned about - but it is a massive insurance policy for the future of global food security.

We should be exploring AI to develop clearer data on climate feedbacks — rather than relying on bureaucratic top-down restrictions alone.
Regional chaos, albedo effects, and ocean circulation patterns all remind us that climate computer models remain imperfect. Yet when they have been applied to long-term climate predictions, these models have often overstated warming or struggled with key localised feedbacks more than they have reliably guided policy.
There is no doubt that energy abundance and technological progress remain humanity’s strongest tools. The oceans’ massive buffering capacity is still underappreciated, because climate is a deeply coupled, chaotic system where CO₂ is one influence among many. Solar variability, volcanic activities, orbital cycles and other natural factors all matter profoundly.
Climate policies should therefore prioritise seeking resilience, adaptation, and innovation over fear-based centralised agendas. That means rapidly expanding nuclear power, advanced geothermal, more efficient grids and enlisting the rising power of AI thinking.
@PeterDClack This is horrific, terrifying, when elites lose control of bad money making ideas it's not the bad ideas that suffer it's the masses.
This could be why they are trying to foment racial wars and murder all over the place, they created big problems and now want billions of us gone.
A staggering 7 to 8 billion solar panels have been deployed globally—but up to 90% of them are currently on a direct trajectory toward disposal.
While modern solar panels are technically made of roughly 95% recyclable materials (glass, aluminum, copper, and silicon), recycling currently runs at a steep economic loss.
* The cost: Processing runs $500–$1,000 per tonne ($10 to $40 per panel).
* The yield: The value of recovered materials doesn't even cover the transport fees.
Compared with minimal landfill fees, economics dictate that burial is the default option. But the world is rapidly running out of room, and governments are beginning to panic.
We are already seeing a preview of this crisis in the wind sector, where an expected 43 million tonnes of turbine blade waste by 2050 has led several European nations—including Austria, Germany, Finland, and the Netherlands—to actively ban decommissioned blades from landfills.
Solar is hitting the same wall. Panels built over two decades ago are reaching the end of their 20-to-24-year lifespans, while many more become economically obsolete and are replaced long before that.
This has created a massive regulatory catch-22: To prevent heavy metals like lead and cadmium from potentially leaching into groundwater, jurisdictions like Victoria, Australia, have implemented strict bans on putting solar panels into landfills, classifying them as hazardous e-waste.
Yet, with recycling remaining economically non-viable, we are creating an impossible bottleneck. While industry bodies like the IEA maintain that leaching risks from broken panels are negligible and within safety limits, the sheer volume of impending waste tells a different story.
If it costs too much to recycle, and it is illegal to landfill, where do several billions of panels go?
The 'clean energy' solution is rapidly staring down the barrel of a multi-generational hazardous waste problem.

🟥 Czy Henry Nowak mógł przeżyć?
Dr Krzysztof Magier @DrMagier , lekarz pediatra i były konsul honorowy RP w Cowes, przeanalizował nagrania z policyjnej kamery nasobnej pokazujące śmierć Henry'ego Nowaka.
Dr Magier jest lekarzem prowadzącym oddział intensywnej terapii dziecięcej, z doświadczeniem w szkoleniach z medycyny pola walki oraz po specjalistycznym kursie leczenia ciężkich urazów (w tym ran postrzałowych i kłutych).
Nie zgadza się z opinią patologa i sędziego, że Henry Nowak nie miał żadnych szans na przeżycie i ze skucie go w kajdanki nic w zasadzie nie zmieniło. Wręcz przeciwnie – istnieje duże prawdopodobieństwo, że to interwencja policji przyczyniła się do jego śmierci.
Przeanalizował on raport z sekcji, który wskazuje na uszkodzenie żyły podobojczykowej jako główne źródło krwawienia i tłumaczy, gdzie leży problem.
U zdrowej osoby krwawienie żylne odbywa się pod niskim ciśnieniem i często samoogranicza się dzięki powstającemu naturalnie skrzepowi, a samo zbliżenie krawędzi rany i ucisk otaczających tkanek domyka żyłę na tyle, że spowalnia albo nawet zatrzymuje krwawienie.
Z nagrania z policyjnej kamery nasobnej wynika, że gdy policja przybyła na miejsce (prawdopodobnie 5-10 minut po zranieniu), Henry był na tyle przytomny, że mówił dość głośno. Nie był zatem jeszcze w stanie terminalnym. Po wykręceniu rąk do tyłu i skuciu za plecami najprawdopodobniej doszło do rozciągnięcia żyły, rozerwania skrzepu i gwałtownego nasilenia krwawienia. W ciągu zaledwie ok. trzech minut stracił przytomność i zmarł.
Osoby z podejrzeniem urazów wewnętrznych nigdy nie powinny być gwałtownie przemieszczane ani szarpane – takie działanie może zniszczyć naturalny skrzep i doprowadzić do masywnego krwotoku wewnętrznego.
Zamiast natychmiastowego wezwania zespołu ratownictwa medycznego i przekazania pacjenta w ręce ratowników, policja go skuła. Gdyby na miejscu jako pierwsi pojawili się paramedycy, szanse Henry’ego na przeżycie byłyby znacznie większe. "50%" - pisze dr Magier.
Ratownicy mogliby szybko założyć kroplówkę, podać płyny zwiększające objętość krwi krążącej oraz kwas traneksamowy stabilizujący skrzep, a w razie potrzeby wykonać dekompresję igłową (wkłucie grubej i długiej igły w płuco), bo problemem nie był tyle brak funkcji płuca, ale ucisk zalanego krwią płuca na serce i śródpiersie, który blokuje krążenie.
Co gorsza, incydent miał miejsce zaledwie kilka minut jazdy samochodem (2–3 minuty karetką na sygnale) od Southampton University Hospital – regionalnego Major Trauma Centre dysponującego pełnym zapleczem specjalistów, procedur i sprzętu. "Jestem przekonany, że gdyby Henry dotarł tam żywy, lekarze nie pozwoliliby mu umrzeć" - pisze dr Magier.
Podsumowując: agresywna interwencja policji, zamiast ratować życie, doprowadziła do śmierci przez nieodpowiednie postępowanie z ciężko ranionym człowiekiem, mimo że najwyższej klasy opieka była w zasięgu kilku minut. "Obawiam się, że Sędzia i patolog byli zbyt łaskawi dla policji" - pisze dr Magier.
A leading Polish doctor has stated that the police moving Henry during the arrest would have opened the wounds causing him to bleed to death.
Henry went from conscious and speaking to unresponsive, only after the police arrested him.
The officers should be jailed.
Insanely similar scenes tonight in East London tonight as a lone white man is attacked by a gang of non whites.
Check who the security try to apprehend.
The same virtue signaling leftists, politicians and legacy media screaming "muh Nigel Farage" and "muh wheelie bin" after a young Englishman was left to die in handcuffs.
Did this when George Floyd died of a fentanyl overdose thousands of miles away.
Get to fuck.
@indepdubnrth Cheek of them!!
They're purveyors of reverse psychology.
The biggest spreaders of "Misinformation" in the country if not the whole of Europe!
They get to say what they like and when - but have their EU Commission bots ready to spam our timelines if we put a step out of place.🙃
"MISINFORMATION"
Throughout the course of 6yrs of investigations and 7 days of hearings and cross examinations by the IMC's legal team. I was NEVER accused of misinformation. Not ONCE. I don't think the word ws ever even used!
Yet it forms the headline of RTE's coverage -and they have never ever interviewed me - not once in 6yrs. Not ONCE!
Who exactly is guilty of "misinformation" ?
GP found guilty of misinformation: https://t.co/3qPqI3N5vE
Mohammed Israil, a British Muslim from Bradford, attempted to sexually abuse a 13-year-old White British girl. Caught by British patriots.
He became angry and said, “My wife is disabled, I am an old man, it’s my first time.”
Mohammed travelled to Leeds with flowers and chocolates to meet the girl. He told her:
- Age doesn’t matter
- I will marry you
- Your eyes are very sexy, your lips are like watermelon
- When I go to bed I see you beside me
- I will buy you a new phone
- Don’t tell your parents about our relationship
- What is your bra size? I will buy you some
- We will shower together
When arrested, police discovered the 13-year-old girl’s photo as Mohammed’s phone screensaver.
Mohammed is out on bail. The case is ongoing at Leeds Crown Court.
@RealIrishCONS Horrific details coming out of UK by Bishop who went on a night patrol with locals, hundreds of young men and women being drugged, taken off streets, gang raped by the hordes, our young are in for hell and all these sick fake journalists do is push it.

Some Polish woman who bizarrely is head of the Irish Immigration Council says you're all a bunch of racists and we need to give immigrants more free houses, medical cards, dole and endless other free shit......
