Look how fast the CO2 is increasing!
Oh my! Are we all going to die?

Note the impact of that increasing CO2 on climate deaths and crops, below. The diametrically opposed polar opposite of what it's supposed to do.......kill people and the planet.
Increasing CO2 has SAVED an enormous number of lives. Over 1 billion ADDITIONAL being fed, just from the positive contributions of INCREASING CO2 and beneficial climate change.
Fossil fuels are feeding almost half the planet from the synthetic fertilizer made with natural gas.

Remember the good old days when they taught this about CO2 as the beneficial gas that it is?

Having declared carbon dioxide (CO₂) and other greenhouse gases (GHGs) to be harmful pollutants, the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) 2009 endangerment finding has been the cornerstone of wrongheaded climate regulation, an impediment to economic growth and destroyer of livelihoods. All the result of rulemaking that puts ideology ahead of science.
Empowered to impose sweeping restrictions on GHG emissions from all manner of human activity, the EPA has been free to impose unreasonable demands on electric generation, transportation, manufacturing and agriculture – just to name more prominent targets. Under the Obama and Biden administrations, with CO2 emissions being the focus, fossil fuels in general and coal in particular were hammered by this regulatory cudgel.
In the last decade, regulations have contributed to the closing of more than 40 percent of the nation’s coal-fired power plants – one of the most economical and reliable generators of electricity. Job losses hit thousands of plant workers, coal miners and employees of supporting businesses, and both the price of electricity and the risk of blackouts increased.
The endangerment finding was a response to the Supreme Court’s 2007 decision in Massachusetts v. EPA, which ruled that EPA had the authority to regulate GHGs under the Clean Air Act if they endangered the public. On the basis of flawed analyses, the Obama administration’s EPA concluded that there was such a threat, laying a foundation for some of the agency’s most consequential regulations.

Just a little reminder of the work we've been getting from the extremely corrupt, biased and scientifically dishonest IPCC the past 3+ decades. They are responsible for the Fake Climate Crisis Bible to be used around the world by those following climate religion:
Here's an accurate description with the evidence of how they hijacked climate science then REWROTE CLIMATE HISTORY for their agenda. Seriously, they completely eliminated the Medieval Warm Period, (proven by 100 studies and long accepted by climate scientists) from climate history!!

As expected/predicted earlier this year:
If finalized, this proposal would undo the underpinning of $1 trillion in costly regulations, save more than $54 billion annually
Revoking the agency’s Endangerment Finding will lift costly regulatory burdens and restore the Clean Air Act to Congress’s original intent.

I always thought the biggest irony of this silly endangerment finding was catalytic convertors.
The most ingenious and effective pollution fighting device in history for decades.........suddenly became the source of CO2 pollution based on this junk science, political nonsense.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_converter
A catalytic converter part is an exhaust emission control device which converts toxic gases and pollutants in exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine into less-toxic pollutants by catalyzing a redox reaction. Catalytic converters are usually used with internal combustion engines fueled by gasoline (petrol) or diesel, including lean-burn engines, and sometimes on kerosene heaters and stoves.
The first widespread introduction of catalytic converters was in the United States automobile market. To comply with the US Environmental Protection Agency's stricter regulation of exhaust emissions, most gasoline-powered vehicles starting with the 1975 model year are equipped with catalytic converters.[1][2][3] These "two-way" oxidation converters combine oxygen with carbon monoxide (CO) and unburned hydrocarbons (HC) to produce carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).
The three-way catalytic converters have the additional advantage of controlling the emission of nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) (both together abbreviated with NOx and not to be confused with nitrous oxide (N2O)). NOx are precursors to acid rain and smog.[24]
Since 1981, the three-way (oxidation-reduction) catalytic converters have been used in vehicle emission control systems in the United States and Canada; many other countries have also adopted stringent vehicle emission regulations that in effect require three-way converters on gasoline-powered vehicles. The reduction and oxidation catalysts are typically contained in a common housing; however, in some instances, they may be housed separately. A three-way catalytic converter does three simultaneous tasks:[24]

I plotted 2025, 2024, 2023 and the last major drought year 2012 below. 2025, in red is a new record high for vegetative health in the United States.
China, below is also well into record high territory for vegetative health right now as the global climate optimum continues thanks to the increase in CO2!
