People will increasingly ignorant if they live long in the air pollution?

Recent research shows that increasing the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO ₂ ) in the air can harm our cognitive abilities and thinking.

The Forbes site gives a brief description of the paper published on EarthArXiv science site. Accordingly, the rapidly rising CO ₂ concentration during the past decades has been largely human. Research by Kristopher Karnauskas and Shelly Miller from the University of Colorado and Anna Schapiro from the University of Pennsylvania (together in the US) shows the relationship between CO ₂ concentration and the ability to think of humans.

To further clarify why CO2 affects human thinking, the scientists point out that the lung sacs are responsible for exchanging oxygen (O ₂ ) in the air with the CO2 present in the blood. If the air you breathe has more CO2 than oxygen, your blood will not receive enough oxygen, while our brain cells need oxygen to function.

If the amount of oxygen is not enough, brain cells will not function normally and even these cells will die, affecting our cognitive ability.

With the data obtained from the research and the calculations of the scientists, the amount of CO ₂ in the air will increase and by 2100, it will reduce by 25% the ability to make decisions and reduce. 50% ability to analyze and think about complex human issues. With a simple math, that's 80 more years.

97% of environmental research scientists cite people increasingly promoting global warming and climate change. Together with the above research, it is evident that the human impact on the environment will cause the environment to react quickly on humans and methods to completely isolate the environment is impossible.
