[APWG] NEWS: Brazilian peppers devour carbon dioxide, study finds

[Wayne Tyson]

PC:

Newspaper accounts, especially those without links to their sources, are 
often misleading. Reporters accept any published research as valid. It ain't 
necessarily so.

Providing FILES (not just links, as these require big-buck expenditures to 
download) of the original research in its entirety is essential to get at 
the validity of the research. Some people actually do rely on news articles, 
and can then spend a lot of time, effort, and money going off half-cocked on 
something invalid.

PS: What green plant doesn't "devour" CO2?
