The same NASA that was only recently talking about how higher CO2 levels in the atmosphere have aided greening - yes, an increase in plant biomass….

Take yourself back to the nursery, and leave the adults to have a sensible discussion without your deranged mewling.
You have not read that report. There is only a temporary increase in greening. Increased temps negate then reverse this. The latest climate models now clearly indicate crop yields reductions as a consequence. As temperatures are a consequence of anthropogenic greenhouse emissions. Controlling CO2 and ch4 r vital 2 all

Well, I'm angry that hollow ideology which has pushed flawed science relentlessly (despite all that has been corrected around understanding of the carbon cycle) has been allowed to skew important decisions about how to mitigate climate change since the turn of the century. So much time lost, and so much food producing land being lost to baseless, ivory towered, nonsense.

When I was at school we were told the dawn of next ice age was just around the corner, then it was global warming, now it’s climate change…… things change shock 🙀

reality is that human population is ballooning, there’s not going to be enough natural resources to sustain it. That’s the issue and it’s not discussed.

I have read more reports, papers, and journal articles on climate change than any sane person should . Why? Because I love playing "spot the bullsh1tter", and there's plenty of them to be found in the climate change industry (and yes, it is an industry), from scientists that prostitute themselves to give their funders the exact answers they want to political groups who dip their ideology in a coat of green paint in an effort to disguise their disgusting politics. From fringe lunatics like vegans intent on forcing their perverse dietary religion on others to those who are seeking to make big bucks out of it.

The simple undeniable fact is that for 50 years climate doomists like yourself have been making predictions that have subsequently proved to be egregiously wrong, from the number of polar bears to sea level rise.

History shows that when the global temperature was far higher than today and CO2 also far higher, life itself thrived along with giant lush forests that contributed over millions of years to our carbon based fuel stores in the form of oil, coal, coral, limestone and so on. All of which removed CO2 from the atmosphere and hence slowly reduced the rate of growth and amount of vegetation covering the planet.

I strongly suspect that the report you point to, takes no account of this historical fact for its future predictions which I personally predict will be as way out of kilter with reality as it pans out as all their other computer models of the future have turned out to be.
 
Scientific modelling is a projection of data. Data is collected from precise measurement.
Some opinions are not based on fact,
observation or experience!

Its a projection none the less. Even the data isn't precise - its wildly varied. Yes there is a trend but it doesn't lend itself to your hysterical scenario.

The idea of controlling co2 is very egotistical.

Extreme cold following the warmth in March this year is an 'agricultural disaster' for parts of Europe.
Many sensitive crops blossomed early and subject to harsh frost. The timing of this strong cold is horrific, this happened last year too. https://t.co/VkxxlYJW5v
 
Bit more flooding in London and fens. Weird. Just don't look up.

What about the fact that rivers are not dredged nowadays and haven't been for several decades?
Do you understand that silted up rivers can't carry water away so flooding occurs?

You really should be sure of what you post, otherwise you look more and more like a ranting lunatic.
