A new study led by Josep Peñuelas and published in Nature Ecology and Evolution reveals that CO₂ abundance in the atmosphere no longer has a powerful fertilizing effect on vegetation. The greening that has been observed in recent years is slowing and this will cause CO₂ levels in the atmosphere to rise, thus increasing temperatures and leading to increasingly severe changes in climate.

In an article in the journal Science, Josep Peñuelas warns that we must immediately begin studying the changes we are causing in the microbial world, improve water treatment systems, and change crop fertilization practices.
