Video below: No, Jordan Peterson, plants do not have to open their pores more, instead they grow more pores or, as it is called stomata, higher numbers of stomata, which means more loss of moist (water) as they capture CO2 molecules they need to grow. The more CO2 molecules there are in the air, less stomatas do plants need = less loss of water. That is also how scientists are able to calculate how high the CO2 level was in geological records (proxies).
Also in the video: Alex Epstein claim that nature gets more lush with more CO2, “.. exactly what was predicted by the people who discovered the “Greenhouse Effect” ..” Mixing CO2 and the “Greenhouse Effect” is a mistake. More CO2 leads to more plant growth, a more lush world, that is correct, however the “Greenhouse Effect” doesn’t even exist (in the real world).
The “Greenhouse Effect” theory is wrong!
Heat is transferred from the sun to the surface of the earth by short wave radiation. The warm surface of the earth is warming the atmosphere by long wave infrared radiation based on how much energy it is getting from the sun. The energy (heat) is transported up in the atmosphere by convecting air and replaced by descending, cooler air. Any effect of CO2 in this process has never been measured due to the density of the lower part of the Troposphere and water vapor (Latent Heat).
The more heat the surface receives from the sun, the more convection it creates.
At no point in that process does adding random molecules make the atmosphere heat the surface, i.e. heat its own heat source, that is impossible no matter what passive substances you are adding.
“Back Radiation“! is the main magic of the nonsense, but .. No matter what altitude the now depleted and low energy (“heat”) is starting its way down from, to add energy (heat) to the earth’s already warmer surface, it has to overcome a gradually denser, warmer atmosphere as it descends, convection, water vapor and the fact that more CO2 only increases the resistance for the energy (heat) to radiate back down to reach the surface by dilution of energy through dispersion (CO2 emits infrared radiation in 1/31000 part of a second in all direction, which is the reason it is such an effective coolant), it’s basically a wall it can’t radiate through, making “Back Radiation” and the “Greenhouse Effect” theory a joke.
The atmosphere’s ability to retain energy (heat) is determined by pressure, mass and gravity, those are known and fixed units. Adding a few random molecules will have no measurable impact.
