As an internet stranger, I would like to overstep my bounds and recommend some reflection on what drove you to this reaction.
If you read the article, it's an extremely thoughtful point that makes sense if you know a bit of biology & chemistry,
> In Western Europe, yields were estimated to improve nearly 10% for both winter and summer crops. Crop yields in India were calculated to increase by roughly eight percent for summer crops and six percent for winter crops. North and South America were generally shown to have the lowest levels of NOx exposures.
>
> Overall, the study highlighted that effects appeared most negative in the seasons and locations where NOx likely drives ozone formation.
You can read what Ozone does to plants here, https://www.nps.gov/subjects/air/nature-ozone.htm https://www.nps.gov/subjects/air/nature-ozone.htm
Just like it irritates/burns our tissues, it does so with plants as well. You can also trivially arrive at the relationship between NOx and Ozone here, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOx#Formation_and_reactions https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOx#Formation_and_reactions
Your reaction is deeply out of proportion here.
