Climate change will boost farm output
AUSTRALIAN agricultural output will double over the next 40 years, with climate change predicted to increase, rather than hinder, the level of production.
From the page: "In fact, Mr Keogh says, if global warming does occur, some areas such as southeast Queensland will receive more rain, and as a result will greatly benefit. Recent research has shown increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere lifts plant production by up to 30 per cent in a phenomenon known as carbon fertilisation."
Which ever the discussion goes on Climate Change, there's continual news that is good as well as bad. This article is on the side of good news. Read the whole article to be sure.
