Because of our high use of fossil fuels, the amount of CO2 in our atmosphere has increased as well. It is scary to hear it affects crop growth as well. Hopefully articles and discoveries like this will help raise awareness on how humans are impacting the atmosphere negatively. <br /><br />-Amber Vien Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008122866340502585.post-17639789479624004102014-04-25T19:30:33.176-07:002014-04-25T19:30:33.176-07:00Great post!

Many focus on the detrimental long term effects of the atmosphere changes, but the effects that are occurring right now need to be emphasized more to get people's attention. <br />Posted by Kristen WhiteheadPeter Houlihanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00961900865379520219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008122866340502585.post-59477130254868217752014-04-24T07:58:02.692-07:002014-04-24T07:58:02.692-07:00Excellent article!

On the one hand, Carbon Dioxide levels have increased, which helps the plants do more photosynthesis, extending the growing season. On the other hand, more variable weather patterns due to global warming could also have a deleterious effect on agriculture.<br />-JEPeter Houlihanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00961900865379520219noreply@blogger.com
