The end of April has arrived, and with it, the record for the first month in human history with an average carbon dioxide level in Earths atmosphere above 400 parts per million has been set.
With a little more than 24 hours left in the month, the average for April can't slip below 400 ppm. Every day in April has been over 400 ppm, said Pieter Tans, a climate scientist with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
The levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are monitored from a site atop Hawaiis Mauna Loa volcano, where they have been measured continuously since 1958. The long record has charted the steep rise of the greenhouse gas the most prevalent in Earths atmosphere as a result of human emissions.
The first measurement in excess of 400 ppm was made on May 9, 2013. This year, the level rose above that mark a full two months earlier, and has remained above 400 ppm steadily since the beginning of April. While the milestone is largely a symbolic one, it does illustrate how far emissions have risen from their preindustrial levels of 280 ppm.

I'm more worried about terminal flatulence...
Let's talk about the rate of increase of co2...

If current trends continue!
When the stock market goes up 100 points in a week, do you assume it will keep doing so forever?
