The peer-reviewed study, which was published in the scientific journal Global Ecology and Conservation, finds that the phenomenon known as “global greening” is an indisputable fact. The rate of global greening has increased slightly, and drought has only slowed, but not stopped, the process. …
Gregory Wrightstone, executive director of the CO2 Coalition, told Just The News that global greening is among benefits of global warming that are ignored and dismissed because it doesn’t fit a narrative that climate change is causing a crisis.
“There’s a lot of people who make a lot of money on the backs of the false notion of a pending climate crisis,” Wrightstone said.

The group’s views of climate change have not been welcomed in mainstream circles. In March 2022, the group had purchased a booth at the National Science Teaching Association’s annual conference in Atlanta, Georgia.
