News flash: Supply creates its own demand

From ananova.com:
Global warming may be slowing as trees in the tropical forests of the Amazon are growing and dying much more quickly, new British research suggests.

The growth rate of trees in the Amazon Basin has nearly doubled in recent decades, which may have helped slow the earth from heating up, according to the research published by The Royal Society.

But the death rate of the trees has also accelerated, scientists warned.

They said the death rate was slower than the growth rate, apparently causing an increased biomass - or mass of living vegetation.

And the change in these areas - making up more than half of the Amazon rainforests - may have acted as a brake on global warming.

The increased biomass helps clean carbon dioxide from the air and slow its buildup in the atmosphere.
And if you dump rice in the lake every day, the fish popularion will explode. Only environmentaloids don't understand this.
