Atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2) concentrations from 1958 to 2023. The Keeling Curve is a graph of the annual variation and overall accumulation of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere based on continuous measurements taken at the Mauna Loa Observatory on the island of Hawaii from 1958 to the present day.
The Keeling Curve shows the long-term increase of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2) concentrations since 1958. (from Causes of climate change ) Image 42 Terms like "climate emergency" and climate crisis" have often been used by activists, and are increasingly found in academic papers.
Levels of carbon dioxide in the Earth’s atmosphere have soared to levels that are now more than 50% higher than in preindustrial times, scientists with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric ...
Global sea level has increased by 20–25 cm (8–10 in) since 1900, with half of that increase occurring since 1980. This sea level rise has been the fastest in "at least the last 3000 years", which is very likely to have been caused by human activity. [1]: 5, 8 [2]: 4 As the recent warming heats the ocean, its water expands in volume.
