CO2 levels at 800,000-year high
Haaretz ^ | April 13, 2014 21:11 GMT | Haaretz

For two consecutive days last week, the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the earth's atmosphere exceeded 402 parts per million (ppm,) higher than at any time in at least the past 800,000 years, according to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Carbon dioxide levels tend to peak in May, which means that they are likely to rise even more. According to an article in Mashable, a news and tech website, the latest figures "put humans into uncharted territory."

Just last month, the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released a damning report that illustrated the growing dangers of global warming. The panel focused on carbon dioxide emissions and warned about the dangers of inaction.

Carbon dioxide levels tend to peak in May,

no sh!t Sherlock, that’s because that’s when more trees have their leaves out and doing this thing called photosynthesis. It’s really a cool thing - trees breath in CO2 and expel O2, been happening since the beginning of time.

Full foliage also doesn’t appear till June in many places. Now the photosynthesis has a chance to catch up with the CO2.

I would then make the assumption that me building a fire tonight would not contribute to global warming?

The last thing I want to do is make an idiot uncomfortable.

Compared to a longer term say 500 million years, we are in a severe CO2 shortage.

A. What percentage of that is man-made?

B. No matter what the answer of A, what model makes that answer relevant?

C. Do you really believe Algore is for anything other than the complete destruction of the human race?

...and then, inconveniently, find out that temperature change precedes CO2 change by roughly 800-1200 years - destroying the entire AGW “theory”

According to the guys who released unadjusted temperature data and then lied about it.

Sure. I believe them.

How do they account for the warm periods where the ice melts away and thus so does the co2 trapped bubbles?
...............
These ice cores come from places where the ice does not melt. because it stays cold.

CO2 is a harmless, odorless and invisible gas. Adding trace amounts to the trace amounts does noting.

I wish the Consensous science pinheads would give us all the facts about our atmosphere:
Nitrogen, 780,900 parts per million
Oxygen, 200,950 parts per million
Argon, 9,500 parts per million
CO2, 400 parts per million

Neanderthals were driving SUVs 800000 years ago?

NOAA is telling us that daily CO2 levels were being measured 800,000 years ago.

NOAA is attaching current daily data to historical measurements using different methodologies. This approach is as fallacious as Michael Mann's hockey stick.

Our tax dollars are directed to creating transparent deceptions to support a socialist myth.

Easy-peasy; these guys have secret time machines. They’ve traveled time so far backward that they have discovered God doesn’t exist.
