Burning Diesel, Greening Grass

I recieved this from dad a farmer who wishes to remain anonymous. It’s an interesting theory.

As a result of fifty years of farming in Saskatchewan I have come to the conclusion, as a result of observation and deduction, that the production of crops in the prairie provinces and particularly, Saskatchewan, absolutely depends on the emission of carbon dioxide gas from burning fossil fuels.
Every year about October the farmers of Saskatchewan put away their combines and tractors except for a few chore tractors and either go curling or to Texas or Arizona. There is no green grass growing in November or December. Nor, in January, February or March.
In April,as it is tax time and the curling is over,the farmers return to their farms, get out their tractors and begin to prepare the land and sow the crops.
In May, the tractors really start to roll and the crops, grass and trees start to green up at a phenomenal rate as a direct result of the plentiful emissions of CO2 produced by preparing the land and sowing the crops. The CO2� from the sprayers and haying machines adds to the total and the country is soon lush and green.
In July the seeding and haying machines are put away. As a result, CO2 levels begin to drop. By the end of August the crops start to turn brown, (some more dependent on CO2 earlier), and the farmers, in an effort to salvage the browning crops and replenish the CO2, get out their combines and go to work. But, it is too little to late and by the end of September – early October the crops are salvaged, but the country slowly turns brown again. So the farmers put away their tractors and combines, head to Arizona for a few months and the cycle repeats itself.
As the opponents of CO2 emissions would say,”anyone who questions these conclusions are bordering imbeciles, entirely unobservant or both.
