If global warming were true (I dont believe it is) then plants would thrive as they did in the past.

Errrr, what???
Climate change will kill plants that have evolved to thrive in a certain climate.
That's leaving aside the threat of man-made manipulations of the air and soil content from (possible) chemtrails, pesticides, the Joys of Monsanto, etc.

just wait a bit and you will see a new species of all these with the claim that they are disease resistant.
brought to you by the good folks of Monsanto.

So hogwash, just cause they teach you this in 3rd grade science doesn't mean it is true..
Thats just sorcery..
Would have come up with a wittier line but meh..

We are to believe that CO2 is the cause of global warming. Plants EAT co2. In the past when co2 levels were higher than they are now plant life grew much bigger and faster! Modern farming techniques use co2 for that very reason!

Tell that to the farmers that use co2 to drastically increase their yields!

....yes, temperature change will affect plants, but the point I was making concerned the co2, which some members seem to disbelieve.
Changes in soil microbial community structure under elevated tropospheric O3 and CO2
We studied the effects of O3 and CO2 alone and in combination on soil microbial communities by assessing the changes in total PLFA biomass, profiles and specific subgroups. ....Our results show that elevated O3 alone and in combination with CO2 even at moderate levels may cause changes in the biomass and composition of the microbial community in meadow soils, which may lead to functional changes in soil ecosystem processes.
Coffee with more gas. Coffee plants grow bigger and produce more when there is more CO2 in the atmosphere
Precocious blooms: the coffee plant grows bigger and produces more cherries in an atmosphere richer in CO2
An atmosphere richer in carbon dioxide (CO2)—as our atmosphere is expected to be in the coming decades as a consequence of continued emissions of gases resulting from the burning of forests and fossil fuels—could benefit the production of coffee, one of Brazil’s principal agricultural crops, and perhaps neutralize the loss in productivity caused by the increase in temperature and the intensification of droughts and floods, according to the initial results obtained from an experimental crop grown at the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa) facility in Jaguariúna.

Elevated CO2 spurs reciprocal positive effects between a plant virus and an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus.
Plants form ubiquitous associations with diverse microbes. These interactions range from parasitism to mutualism, depending partly on resource supplies that are being altered by global change. ...
....Under elevated CO(2), mycorrhizal association increased the titer of virus infections, and virus infection reciprocally increased the colonization of roots by mycorrhizal fungi. Additionally, virus infection decreased plant allocation to root biomass, increased leaf P, and modulated effects of CO(2) and P addition on mycorrhizal root colonization. These results indicate that plant mutualists and pathogens can alter each other's success, and predict that these interactions will respond to increased resource availability and elevated CO(2). Together, our findings highlight the importance of interactions among multiple microorganisms for plant performance under global change.
