If we are greener

About 4 or 5 years ago, we were told the Earth was greener than twenty years prior. In fact, I have also heard that the Earth is now 15% greener than 15 years ago. I was taught that plants converted CO2 into oxygen. Is Climate Change an agenda? Please read the following article.

  1. Climate scientist admits overhyping impact of global warming on wildfires to get published

  2. Of course, these days Elon Musk is launching more rockets than NASA, seemingly.

  3. There is an interesting consequence of this global green up: as vegetation consumes some of the heat-trapping carbon dioxide it also performs evapotranspiration—a function similar to human sweating—which can have a cooling effect on the air. Scientists say that global greening since the early 1980s may have reduced global warming by as much as 0.2° to 0.25° Celsius (0.36° to 0.45° Fahrenheit). In other words, the world would be even warmer than it is if not for the surge in plant growth.
