Editorial
The Importance of Long-Term Temperature and CO2 Data: A paper about the Late Bronze Age civilization collapse throughout the Eastern Mediterranean and the subsequent Greek Dark Ages has prompted us to appreciate anew the incredulousness of climate-alarmist genuflexing before the altar of CO2-induced global warming.

Subject Index Summary
Vegetative Storage Proteins: In CO2-enriched air, these special nitrogen-storing proteins are created in greater amounts in the leaves of perennial plants, where they are stored over winter and from whence they are transferred to newly-developing second-year leaves to give them a huge boost in their initial development.
