The Earth’s Tipping Point: 350 Parts Per Million C02

submitted by arvana

1 decade 5 years 9 months 2 weeks ago

too bad we reached 386.7 off santa barbara about 12 months ago , look at the readings off svalbard from this winter.
It brings to mind that george carlin quote "i'm just watching us circle the bowl and cheering for that comet."
plant a garden , purchase a firearm ,
tuck your head between your legs and kiss our collective sweet ass goodbye .
