Contrary to what you might think, more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is actually bad news for growing food. In this video I talk about why more CO2 means a warmer planet, a drier planet, and less food. But more than that, food that actually contains fewer nutrients...

Video essay about the effects of climate change on agriculture, how climate change will hurt food production, including how climate change will make food less nutritious. More CO2 means more photosynthesis, but more CO2 also means a warmer planet, which means less food, and food lacking in protein. In this video - similar to videos from SciShow, Crash Course, ClimateTown, Our Changing Climate, Veritasium, and Smarter Every Day - I talk about how global warming will impact how much food we can grow.
