Ridiculous NWF climate propaganda on public radio: Carbon dioxide is good for all life forms that you dislike

WKMS: How [carbon dioxide will cause poison ivy and wood ticks to attack your children]
DOVER, TN (wkms) - A National Wildlife Federation report finds climate change will impact two notoriously unpopular species found in the Four Rivers Region. Both poison ivy and deer ticks can leave you itching for relief, but for some the reaction can be much more serious. Chris Taylor speaks to one man about his experience contracting Lyme Disease and gets some scientific perspective for what's on the horizon.
...
National Wildlife Federation Senior Scientist Dr. Doug Inkley says cases like Keel's will likely increase in our area over this century. He says climate change is making for more mild winters and warmer conditions which are ideal for the parasite.
...
Inkley-Poison ivy, in the future, is going to grow much more rapidly than it is now; perhaps twice as rapidly.
...
Inkley- If you have a two or three year old child, you can expect that before their life is over, they're going to be looking at these impacts if we don't address climate change.

Co2 feeds the growth of ALL plant-life, and warmer weather definitely contributes to the growth of ALL plantlife.

Hence, every Spring I must pull grass and weeds out of my rose garden - since the same warmth that grows roses, also grows weeds.

What? Shall I curse the Spring? Shall I yearn for Winter's freezing temperatures - because Springtime means all those pesky weeds grow.

How moronic are these greenies.
