#4 What that article seems to miss is that plants put water vapor into the atmosphere. Water vapor is a more common and potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. Of course, without water vapor in the atmosphere we would all die. |

#3 Don't forget that paving and roofs increase the risk of flooding. And deforestation and logging, especially clear-cutting. But enginers can (somewhat) precisely calulate the increase and design to mitigate the increase; it just costs more. As opposed to 'more' CO2 results in 'less' transpiration by plants, resulting in 'more than previously thought' risks of flooding. |
