Well worth the read here if you want to know how screwed up the minds of greenies are:
Climate Physicist, Anastassia Makarieva, co-originator of the Biotic Pump Model: Forests, Water, and Climate: Time for Re-Conceptualization
Forests capture a certain part of solar energy at the surface in the form of what is called latent heat. This latent heat is then released during condensation higher in the troposphere from where it later goes unimpeded to space.
Thus by transpiration forests smooth the temperature lapse rate and thus cause cooling. If we reduce transpiration, then more heat remains at the surface, the temperature lapse rate becomes steeper, and we have warming.
Both effects (of transpiration and clouds) will be global and both effects will involve how forests handle water.
Now let me show that both effects are very real and significant.
First, if we are looking at clouds, we have evidence that the record heat in 2023 could have been facilitated by a biospheric breakdown, because we know that in this year the Amazon suffered an unprecedented drought and there were unprecedented forest fires in Canada. In both cases, transpiration and cloud formation were drastically reduced.
We can see that cloud cover was reduced over the Amazon and the adjacent oceanic regions. There is an additional hotspot of cloud reduction over Canada.
This is backed up by our knowledge of how efficient forests are in generating low level clouds that cool the earth. We can see that the the more productive forests are, the more efficient they are in generating clouds. While when we change them for non-forest systems the generation of cloud cover is drastically reduced.
If we saw this 2023 anomaly after a drought in the Amazon forest that was mercilessly plundered, especially during the Bolsonaro times with increasing logging and burning, then now if we have this large-scale deforestation project in Indonesia (MIFEE), we are explicitly asking for more acute global warming.
Ironically, these terrible developments are facilitated by the carbon-focused narrative. Much of the argumentation behind this huge deforestation project in Indonesia is that they will have green fuel, like a renewable fuel, but instead this will actually destabilize our planet even further.
