Growth in carbon dioxide levels 17pc lower than predicted, plants absorbing more CO2 than expected: study
By Simon Santow, staff
The growth in carbon dioxide levels worldwide are currently 17 per cent lower than predicted by computer models, research shows.
The study showed plants were working harder than many expected to counteract the effects of man-made greenhouse gases, which scientists said is driving climate change, by absorbing carbon dioxide.
When government gains the power to control the use of private property, it becomes possible for the politically dominant to profit by high commodity prices using government regulation to constrain supply. One merely drives competitors out of business by manipulating the perception of risk to a land use preferred by a democratic majority.
