> Please consider reading the article, then moderating the comment. If you don't want a knee-jerk reaction, don't share articles from a site that's widely known to be rather one-sided and biased, and with a super divisive tone to it. Your wording also makes has a rather biased tone to it "It's hard to believe Navy didn't study ..." Here's a very recent study with some interesting comments: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41526-019-0071-6.pdf?proof=true&draft=collection https://www.nature.com/articles/s41526-019-0071-6.pdf?proof=... "It may be that astronaut-like operations personnel and submariners, who are high-level performers, are more likely to have heightened situational awareness because of their stringent training. Therefore, these groups may develop faster adaptive patterns of responses and be more perceptive of their cognitive decline, and therefore may compensate more efficiently for self-perceived drops in performance than subjects drawn from the general population. Such distinctions could explain the differences in outcomes between college students and submariners to elevated CO" Seems reasonable that CO2 might have a different effect when motivation is also a huge factor. If you're in a submarine, feeling a bit tired is not an excuse. But in an office setting, it could be what pushes you over the edge to drift away mentally and maybe start procrastinating. In a school setting, motivating students is already a huge uphill battle. But sure, only the studies the navy did matter, and we should not discuss science in nuanced terms. It's all just the scary researches trying to make CO2 look like a boogey-man! That said, I think the headline in this post is a bit sensationalist. Seems doubtful that the effects will be that high. But there it is plausible that global CO2 rise could lead to some cognitive decline. Especially if you combine with the trend of packing more people into the same office space.
