CO2 Level at 650,000-Year High

According to the Earth System Research Laboratory of the
US National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration, the May
monthly mean CO2 concentration measured at Mauna Loa was
388.49 ppmv. This is a new maximum for this data set,
the longest term and most frequently referenced CO2 data.

Also, according to the IPCC WG1 AR4 list of robust findings:

"Current atmospheric concentrations of CO2 and CH4,
and their associated positive radiative forcing,
far exceed those determined from ice core
measurements spanning the last 650,000 years."

Clearly, the atmospheric CO2 concentration is rising
exponentially. To see this, compare the trend of the
red colored points on the graph I have provided with
a straight line.

That's not what the data say, Dunderbar. Not at all!

CO2 has a strong correlation with global
mean surface temperatures, R squared = 0.78
with a very high statistical confidence. I've
yet to see the fossil fool fancy that can come
even close to that. (Usually, fossil fools
don't provide enough sources so that one
can test their claims. That's better cover
for false claims.)

Isn't that great, with any luck and enough rain, harvest should
be really great this year, with the US farmer _FINALLY_ making enough
profit to upgrade equipment and invest in more acreage and possibly
create jobs if there are any people willing to work.

Explain that correlation in the context of the Little Ice Age.

Explain that correlation in the context of the Medieval Warming Period.

Oh, right, those contexts aren't relevant to "global warming"; your
premises can't be challenged. Roger has posted, there is no refutation.

Irrelevant. Only data for the last 200 years (according to your
definition of the "global warming" relevance period.

Subject has been adjusted accordingly.

This post discusses the last 650,000 years.
