CO2 drought? Starvation levels?

What's your point? We need more CO2 because... what?

Op provided a clear explanation of their argument. I don't think they argued that we need more CO2 just provided an interesting perspective on a different time scale. No need for ad hominem attacks.

I think you need to read the comment you're responding to again. OP is not arguing for anything, rather pointing out that different plants evolved to more effectively handle low CO2 environments.
