25 PPM CO2 INCREASE OVER 10 YRS

Carbon Dioxide levels increased from 395 PPM in January 2013 to 419.57 ppm in January 2023 which is an average annual increase of less than 2.5 ppm over the 10 years. Analysis of air trapped in ice and snow in Antarctica by NOAA and others demonstrate that after this date, atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations departed from a relatively stable 280 parts per million observed during the previous 10,000 years, climbing to 354 ppm in 1990 and 405 per million by the end of 2017. Since 1750, after 267 years, the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere had risen by 125 ppm by 2017.

The  above diagram from the ABC News network web site illustrates the distortions created by the deception of the IPCC and by those who misrepresent.

What does ppm mean?

This is an abbreviation for “parts per million” and it also can be expressed as milligrams per liter (mg/L). This measurement is the mass of a chemical or contaminate per unit volume of water. Seeing ppm or mg/L on a lab report means the same thing.

One ppm is equivalent to the absolute fractional amount multiplied by one million. A better way to think of ppm is to visualize putting four drops of ink in a 55-gallon barrel of water and mixing it thoroughly. This procedure would produce an ink concentration of 1 ppm. Some other analogies that may help you visualize the scale involved with ppm. One ppm is like:

  • one inch in 16 miles,
  • one second in 11.5 days,
  • one minute in two years.

An even smaller concentration measurement is parts per billion (ppb) that we use to demonstrate increases in methane. One ppb is one part in 1 billion. Because a ppb is a much lower concentration, some analogies would be :

one sheet in a roll of toilet paper stretching from New York to London,

one second in nearly 32 years, or

one pinch of salt in 10 tons of potato chips.

The consistent pattern of the IPCC reveals demonisation and misrepresentations of CO2. Here are some basic facts about CO2 that illustrate the discrepancy between what the IPCC claim and what science knows.

Natural levels of Carbon dioxide (CO2) are less than 0.04% of the total atmosphere; it is far from being the most important or even only greenhouse gas as most of the public understands.

Water vapor which is 95 percent of the greenhouse gases by volume is by far the most abundant and important greenhouse gas.

The other natural greenhouse gas of relevance is methane (CH4), but it is only 0.000175 percent of atmospheric gases and 0.036 percent of all greenhouse gases.

In order to amplify the importance of CO2 they created a measure called “climate sensitivity”. This determines that CO2 is more “effective” as a greenhouse gas than water vapour.

Water vapor, the most important greenhouse gas by far, is not even shown. It is evidence of the success in placing all the attention on CO2..
