Default Current Monthly CO2 Level at Least 800,000-Year High!

CO2 Level at Least 800,000-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
389.47 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."

The EPICA Dome C record extends this to 800,000 years.
Please see data from Lüthi, D et al. (2008) at
http://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAE...01?format=html

For a graph and curve fit of data taken at Mauna Loa,
please see:

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.

[Watch the fossil fools dust off an ancient archive of
pseudo-science and arcane mathematics in a lame attempt
to challenge these basic facts. That's entertainment!

One lie that fossil fools frequently fib is that there
is no relationship between CO2 and global mean surface
temperature, or that this relationship has broken down
recently. For the truth, a scatter-plot of this strong
relationship, please see:
