no - only the ones that chop down forests
it is an interesting study & does show a correlation between the climate changes & CO2 levels, but I think the conclusion that bubonic plague was a major factor is speculative. It is possible the 're-forestation' of Europe was a contributory factor, but just as likely that other phenomena, such as reduced volcanic activity, were also involved.
