I'm simply stating the fact that increased CO2 levels can have positive impacts on plants. As indoor and greenhouse growers know - a CO2 enrichment system increases photosynthesis efficiency. BTW, during the Cambrian Period, which lasted over 100 million years, there are estimates CO2 levels were as much as 20 times higher than today.

It's a fair point but it's not (to me) that difficult to turn the context of the idea to humans wanting to sustain themselves.
It would require a shift away from the monolith of CO2 but it would entail the practical elements of minimizing resource usage, being frugal and having no more than two children while also avoiding population crash. It would require educating the population to be both critical thinkers and stewards. But people don't generally care about humanity either
If we did we wouldn't need to "save the Earth".

the Cambrian period was suitable for the development of some molluscs and spiders it was very hot, the glaciers melted and sea levels rose. Very little of what we now experience in life would have been viable in the Cambrian period. The greenhouse effect and global warming can take us there again. It will be paradise for slugs.
