Some say "increased" (bigger numbers) atmospheric CO2 will lead to increased global temperatures. The very hot early Carboniferous Period is estimated to have had atmospheric CO2 levels of 1500 ppm which then fell to 350 ppm by the middle Carboniferous. The much hotter Triassic Period is estimated to have had atmospheric CO2 at 2000 ppm.
Remind me- big numbers better? Or worse?
