As a result, Earth is becoming les…
Earth’s Atmosphere Contains More CO2 Than It Has in Millions of Years
For the first time in millions of years, Earth’s atmosphere contained an average of 430.2 parts per million (ppm) of carbon dioxide, the result of humans burning fossil fuels.

The news was overshadowed by the explosive feud between U.S. President Donald Trump and his erstwhile backer Elon Musk, but clima…
