Now, depending on your perspective, if you look at the long-term perspective, you could say, well, we're actually in a carbon dioxide drought. And for most of life history, it's been double, triple, quadruple what it is now, with no apparent bad effect whatsoever. In fact, some of the times when life has been most prolific is when the carbon dioxide has been the greatest.

We also see that going back to 30, 40 years ago, when we first started getting satellite surveys of, let's say, the forest inventory of the planet. And projections were being made based upon previous rates of forest loss that were primarily through deforestation.

And the projection was, is that come around the 21st century, we'd be down to, I forget, half, three quarters perhaps of the forest inventory that we had then. Well, somehow that didn't work out. What has happened is, as we look at more satellite surveys, the number of trees has increased enormously in the last 20 or 30 years.

And I've got a whole series of papers where it's going from, why are projections not holding accurate? You know, looking at the, all the potential different variables. Well, pretty much now it's like, well, we've now seen that there's 20% conservative, 20% more forests than we had projected. Why? Well, the number one reason, carbon dioxide fertilization.

Like if you were to talk to plants, plants would be like, hey, give us more, give us more, right? Also, we're well beyond the point where Uh, the heat capture of is, is pretty much exhausted at this point. And we can look at graphs. I don't know if I, I don't think, you know, we could do that in a, in another interview, but, uh, and take a deep dive into that.

But yeah, I mean, it's now well established that, um, even going back a hundred years ago, it was realized that the heat capture of carbon dioxide was exhausted after a hundred, 150 parts per million. at about the same concentrations at which the greenhouse effect loses its influence and photosynthesis takes over, between 150 and 200 parts per million. So that's where that's at.

Now, getting back to that chart that we were looking at up there, oh my God, I mean, you know, what's going on there is... So I'm guessing that the Eemian down there must have seen a major outgassing of oceanic...
