  1. Because oxygen and carbon dioxide both dissolve better at low temperature.  More carbon dioxide means more raw materials for plants and plankton to work with.  More oxygen means more air for everything (plants, animals, you name it).


  2. I don't think they are.  Look at the vast wildlife differences.
