Professor Emeritus of Physics at Princeton University William Happer discussed common misconceptions in climate science, especially the negative reputation given to CO2, on Sky News Australia last year.
“More CO2 is good for the world, it’s not bad for the world. And so, it’s absurd to be trying to reduce CO2,” he said.

Why is CO2 good for the world?
“If you look at the geological history … we’re in a CO2 famine now compared to what’s normal for plants. And just about any plant if you give it more CO2, and a lot more, it will do better … most greenhouses double or triple the amount of CO2 … because the plants grow so much better – the quality of the flowers and the fruits are so much better,” Prof. Happer said.
He further explained that since the Cambrian explosion of life “CO2 levels have gone way down.”
The Cambrian explosion refers to the rapid and sudden emergence of complex life forms on Earth, approximately 541 million to 530 million years ago. It is believed to have laid the foundation for the incredible diversity of life on Earth, with many modern animal groups emerging during this period.
The high levels of carbon dioxide during the Cambrian period may have played a crucial role in the evolution of life on Earth. Studies suggest that carbon dioxide concentrations during the Cambrian period were much higher than they are today. One study found that CO2 levels were 1,000 parts per million (“ppm”) and R.A. Eggleton’s book ‘A Short History of Climate Change’ stated that CO2 levels may have been as high as 4,000 ppm during the Cambrian period, compared to the current level of around 400 ppm.
“[CO2 levels have] typically been three, four, five times than they are now. And plants are adapted to much higher levels and so they’re harmed in a number of ways by the low levels [of CO2] now,” Prof. Happer explained.
One of the harms to plants with low CO2 levels is photorespiration. Photorespiration is an important aspect of plant metabolism and plays a fundamental role in plant growth and development. When CO2 is low, “the enzyme [plants] use is poisoned by oxygen if there’s not enough CO2, so plants have to devote a lot of their resources to detoxifying this oxygen poisoning [instead of to growth],” he explained.
“If you double CO2 [the plants] don’t have to work as hard to protect themselves from oxygen. That’s the main reason greenhouses work better is that you get rid of the oxygen poisoning – the photorespiration,” he said.
“It’s unbelievable that they’ve managed to turn this beneficial gas, a part of life, into a threat,” he added. He continued:
“They talk about carbon pollution. I can’t imagine what they’re talking about. We’re made of carbon, and we breathe out two pounds of CO2 a day, each of us – that’s 8 billion people.
“Many of them say, well, people are the real problem, it’s not the CO2, we’ve got too many people, and really we can’t have more than a billion people in the world.”

At last an uncorrupted academic! But what is so terrible is by and large it’s ONLY THE OLD ACADEMICS dare speak out. They are either near retirement or retired. There must be so many young academics who would love to speak out, but if they do their research grants will dry up and they will be ostracised,
Watch Professor Willie Soon’s interview on X with Tucker Carlson for the answer to your question
Please watch Tucker Carlson’s interview of Professor Willie Soon, astrophysicist. You can find the interview on X. In order to practice “science” Professor Soon had to leave Harvard. This interview is full of information about CO2, fossil fuels, the sun, wind power, nuclear and solar power. Personally I would prefer to take my information from an expert astrophysicist, rather than a politician.
I have sent this interview to the new PM as well as Ed Milliband who appears to be determined to take the UK into Armageddon. A dangerous ill informed decision maker.
Please watch this interview. I pray the current UK puppets wake up soon before they harm humanity any further.
Hi Mary Ann Dowrick, is this the interview you’re referring to?
Not all “fossil fuels” are from fossils, so where do they come from?

Amazing that in reality this was year 9 school science and so many liars have done there best to change the narrative for global dominance . as for a motive. would be US debt . also placing Western middle and low income earners into further debt due to the cost of reducing C02 plus the cost of managed retreat from coastal areas. All being defined by man made computer generated climate change. Seriously laughable.
Just face the believers in the CO2 lie with the facts:
There is 21% of Oxygen for us to breathe and only 0,04% CO2 for plants to breathe.
That 0,04% comes from 0,03%, 150 year ago.
disappointing answer from Dr Happer on Chemtrails…

This man don’t know what he’s talking about what happens is quite simple more trees come down all fires are lit goes up to the O zone label gets warmer goes through the ice ice goes into the sea and changes the weather you can’t get away from that
They are all Satanic and don’t even know it.
One lie after another , CC, Covid, Gender nonsense, the master of deception…
