CLEAN: Global warming can be good for trees

The video discusses how forests and plants are growing faster due to increased CO2 levels and temperature changes. It highlights the potential benefits of this growth, such as longer growth periods, but also warns about the possible decline in wood quality. The impact of shading on tree growth and ring width is also examined.

What effect does increasing CO2 concentration have on plant growth?

How does raising the temperature around a plant influence its growth?

What might be a negative consequence of increased atmospheric CO2 on wood quality?

Describe the relationship between leaf shading and tree growth.

What observation can be made about tree rings in relation to growth conditions?
