Deep Thought No. 12

There has been a huge scientific discovery- one that is sure to change the face of the planet forever. Drumroll... are you all ready...here it is...


"Higher CO2 levels may be good for plants"

Wow. Plants like carbon dioxide? Really? You mean if you feed something more it gets bigger? Really?!

First- kudos to the German Scientists who spent thousands of man hours studying what every fifth grader in the US already knows.

Second- Kudos to the mainstream media for actually reporting this as news, again proving that they are not smarter than a 5th grader. (super level up bonus points for pop culture reference.)

If you read down in the story, the special olympic scientists are now going to see if warmer weather affects how plants grow. Here is a non educated guess- but solely looking at warm, co2 filled tropical climates- aka rainforests- I would say that warm weather does help plants to grow.
