Levels of the most significant planet-warming gas in our atmosphere rose more quickly than ever previously recorded last year, scientists say, leaving a key global climate target hanging by a thread.

Concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) are now more than 50% higher than before humans started burning large amounts of fossil fuels.

Last year, fossil fuel emissions were at record highs, while the natural world struggled to absorb as much CO2 due to factors including wildfires and drought, so more accumulated in the atmosphere.

The rapid increase in CO2 is “incompatible” with the international pledge to try to limit global warming to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels, the Met Office, [UK’s Meteorological Office] says. More

  3. CO2 released by humans since 1800 is about equal to present atmospheric CO2.

    CO2 in the oceans is about fifty times present atmospheric CO2.

    CO2 sequestered in rock is about five-hundred times oceanic CO2.

    This is NOT Venus. It is Earth, you penis.
