So far the biggest effect of higher CO2 levels seems to be increased foilage and crop yields http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/grl.50563/abstrac...

I don't see how this would be expected to reverse when concentrations continue to rise

That's an effect of increased CO2, sure. But it's not going to be very helpful if your farmland becomes a desert.
