The daily co2 level crosses 407 parts per million

Bill McKibben: Daily co2 measurement at Mauna Loa crosses 407 ppm. Maybe more important than where the Dow stands...

Wow, 407 ppm!

 

[there4eyeM]

Don't speak disrespectfully of Our Holy Dow!

McKibben is a known moon bat.

 

[Billy_Bob]

As CO2 is now being shown a non-factor in earths climatic system this a mute point...

 

[Old Rocks]

LOL.

Yippeeeee !!! Off we go -- marching towards doomsday eh Matthew?

Hey --- have you noticed it's been about a DECADE since we've seen weekly charts plotting temperature and CO2 in the SAME CHART? What's up with that hey...............

I'm calling it... The derailing of the Climate Weirding express.. The whacko train died in 2016...

1) You got Mann admitting on Facebook that paleo proxy studies of ANYTHING are incapable of measuring "extremes" or severely attenuate those "extremes" values below their actual values. Makes him a confessed Hockey Stick fraud for the claims that he made not supported by his actual work. Something that fellow Hockey Sticker Marcott admitted 10 years ago. Leaving us jilted and lied to and lacking any DECENT ACCURATE details of ancient SHORT term climate events in temperature or rainfall or anything else that Paleo proxies are used for..

2) You have scientists at the WestAnt. IceShelf discovering the most likely source for the "warm water" that eats away at that doomsday mountain of ice is "subglacial volcanism".

3) You're not pestered by those simplistic "It must be CO2 because it's the only variable in the climate that LOOKS like our temperature measurements" --- weekly/monthly Press Releases.

I sense a disturbance in the force.. 2016 --- the year the "Death Star" was taken out by Darth's own kin.

Not gonna miss it all.. Plenty of frogs, bees and whales to protect. Massive cleanups needed in our oceans and Federal nuclear weapons dumpsites. A whole ENCYCLOPEDIA of ignored enviro topics to fill this forum in 2017 and during that long Solar Solar "little ice age coming up soon...

Wow....did you see that ?

Nope.. His eyes were closed, over the back, and it was pure net... never touched the rim..

Mebbe it's a precursor to a volcanic eruption.

Hope not Waltky.. Because then Matthew would post a RECORD for CO2 levels because of the volcanic event.

 

[waltky]

Mebbe it's all dat CO2...

... dat's causin' zika an' autism.

We have not had a volcanic event in written human history in which that record would show up on the global chart. That takes eruptions like the Siberian Trapps, or the Columbia Basalts.

Which produces more CO2, volcanic or human activity?

Gas studies at volcanoes worldwide have helped volcanologists tally up a global volcanic CO2 budget in the same way that nations around the globe have cooperated to determine how much CO2 is released by human activity through the burning of fossil fuels. Our studies show that globally, volcanoes on land and under the sea release a total of about 200 million tonnes of CO2annually.

This seems like a huge amount of CO2, but a visit to the U.S. Department of Energy's Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC) website (Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC)) helps anyone armed with a handheld calculator and a high school chemistry text put the volcanic CO2 tally into perspective. Because while 200 million tonnes of CO2 is large, the global fossil fuel CO2emissions for 2003 tipped the scales at 26.8 billion tonnes. Thus, not only does volcanic CO2 not dwarf that of human activity, it actually comprises less than 1 percent of that value.

A short time ago (geologically speaking) the question "Which produces more CO2, volcanic or human activity?" would have been answered differently. Volcanoes would have tipped the scale. Now, human presence, activity, and the resultant production of CO2, through the burning of fossil fuels, have all climbed at an ever-increasing rate. On the other hand, looking back through the comparatively short duration of human history, volcanic activity has, with a few notable disturbances, remained relatively steady.

This number as it changes is a literal time-bomb. The entire human race is soon to find out why they should have been paying attention and ignoring the ignorant Denier Cult.

Reality cannot be ignored.

Isaac,

Seeing that the Great Dying 250 million years ago(during the Permian) that killed 90%+ of all life on earth was caused by green house gases. This number is in fact a very serious one.

Old rocks,

Also the convergence zone volcano's we're having mainly emit gases that cool the planet. Volcano's like the Basalts that you're talking about haven't happen in millions of years!

The great dying was caused by trapp eruption occurring under a area where the ancient forest had gotten buried and was being transformed into coal.

Good thing Fred and Barney stopped driving cars.

Holy Fucking Shit. Now you are talking METHANE ?


God Damn dude won't the fear mongering ever stop?

A greenhouse gas being pumped into the atmosphere doesn't care if it is being done by natural causes or humans. Of course, there weren't no Freds around driving their cars around so it was natural! But, who's to say it couldn't happen if it is human?

You had massive volcanos going off then and the sibaren traps exploded into one messed up world and I should correct my post I forgot about them talking today of excess METHANE being released on the ocean floor .

But you know Damn well that the C02 was 5 times plus higher and the dinos flourished .

That's what I mean, we know of the mass extinctions of the past and what we are seeing now is an equivalent die-off rate to a mass extinction. It isn't in the future that is happening now.

During the P/T extinction 96% of species in the ocean went extinct and the ocean flipped from an oxygen rich environment to an anaerobic environment. And it lasted for 5 million years before it flipped back.

Scientists have been ringing the wake up bell for 15 years but humans are slow to accept seismic social change. And now it's too late and the change will be infinitely worse.

Calm down Rocksy.. I was poking fun at Matthew because he gasps at every 5 ppm on the meter, when the ANNUAL variation at Mauna Loa is 4 or 6 times that number.. You're supposedly a junior geologist. You should know that any volcano can vary WIDELY in the amount of CO2 spewed. So I really don't like pulling a single number out of hat. But in truth, they are somewhere between beverage fizz and termites. And termites ALONE account for about emissions about 1/10 that of man if you include both CO2 and CH4..
