Original Note:
For the last 10,000years (human civilization) CO2 has been around 280ppm, increasing slightly – not decreasing – until modern emissions began. All the minima of the past 800,000years are well above 150ppm: https://climatefeedback.org/evaluation/gregory-wrightstone-article-in-the-washington-times-presents-list-of-false-and-misleading-statements-about-the-impacts-of-co2-and-climate-change-co2-coalition/ https://berkeleyearth.org/dv/10000-years-of-carbon-dioxide/ https://www.climate.gov/news-features/understanding-climate/climate-change-atmospheric-carbon-dioxide More CO2 in the atmosphere is not necessarily good for plants: https://skepticalscience.com/co2-plant-food-basic.htm https://www.theguardian.com/environment/climate-consensus-97-per-cent/2016/sep/19/new-study-undercuts-favorite-climate-myth-more-co2-is-good-for-plants https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcDUaBO8T34
