That's been my basic argument since the beginning of the banned global warming thread (which is substantially changed since my first opinion decades ago). It's not the change that stresses species; but the rate of change.
Plants generally benefiting from increased CO2 concentration is objective scientific fact. Humans can observe that fact, and have an opinion about the benefits of greening the planet vs other less certain consequences of increasing CO2 concentration.
I'll give it a listen tonight. My brother in law sent me his "old" VR headset which is 1 generation old now. Must be nice retiring in your early 50's with lots of fun money; but I'm not complaining at all. I'll be watching Youtube on the "big screen".
