Rising CO2 is claimed to drive global greening

A user cites NASA's PACE satellite and claims increased leaf cover cools vegetated land.

TLDR

In March 2026 posts, a user claimed rising CO2 is driving a northward spread of vegetation and cited NASA's PACE satellite as evidence of broader greening. They said studies attribute 70% of the greening to higher CO2 and attributed to NASA a claim that increased leaf cover cools 93% of vegetated areas. They argued these effects contradict climate-crisis warnings.

Peter Clack@PeterDClackThe stunning expansion of Earth's green biomass is continuing to track consistently northward. Studies show 70% of this greening is due to higher CO2 levels, which contradicts the doomsday climate narrative. NASA studies explain that this expansion of a greener, leafier world is driven by rising carbon levels, helped by longer growing seasons and warmer winters. Studies confirm overall greenness is moving north into traditionally barren colder regions. The frigid wastes are yielding ground to more productive new biomass. This latest finding is published in a new study in PNAS (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences), a leading science journal. The spread of greening, higher leaf cover and improved agriculture yields is being tracked by a flotilla of satellites. They include NASA's PACE satellite (Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem) launched in 2024, which has now completed its first full year of hyperspectral data (March 2025 to March 2026). The carbon gift has now been confirmed. It's now measuring specific plant pigments (chlorophyll, carotenoids, and anthocyanins) from space. The data also show massive productivity spikes in the US midwest corn and soy belts and greening hotspots in India and China. Increased leaf cover is cooling the land surface in 93% of vegetated areas, according to NASA. This is explained by leaf cover creating a more efficient vertical mixing of heat and water vapor. This becomes a natural air conditioner that the UN's urgent code red models often avoid. The MODIS instrument on NASA's Terra satellite is nearing the end of its mission (set for late 2026). NASA is currently transitioning that data stream to VIIRS (on the Suomi NPP satellite) and PACE. The data remains consistent - the global leaf area index continues to climb. If 93% of vegetated areas is cooling via increased leaf cover, why is this missing from the UN climate narrative?204d
