WASHINGTON -- The world's air has reached what scientists call a troubling new milestone for carbon dioxide, the main global warming pollutant.
Monitoring stations across the Arctic this spring are measuring more than 400 parts per million of the heat-trapping gas in the atmosphere.
Carbon dioxide is the chief greenhouse gas and stays in the atmosphere for 100 years. Some carbon dioxide is natural, mainly from decomposing dead plants and animals. Before the Industrial Age, levels were about 275 ppm.

Yet, how many false statements can you find in just the excerpt? I count two with maybe a third there too.
Global warming PING!
Something else for Al Bore to cry about.
Why won’t the libs just stop breathing?
Al is occupied... He now has a honey to squeeze....
The sky is falling the sky is falling shouted Henny Penny
“Al is occupied... He now has a honey to squeeze....”
I hope she marries the turd, screws him to death, and gets all his money!
Trying to keep up with Edwards?
“Carbon dioxide is the chief greenhouse gas and stays in the atmosphere for 100 years”
I thought water vapor was the “chief greenhouse gas?”
Oh pulllleeeeeze.
Note to all those with any kind of “climate” degrees.
You can get your money back from your colleges.
They’ll exchange your phony science degree for one in womyn’s studies.
I'm in favor of them being allowed to inhale. They just shouldn't be allowed to exhale.
So they are just going to keep on going as if no one caught them lying ?
Yes it is, followed by methane I believe.
“Carbon dioxide is the chief greenhouse gas and stays in the atmosphere for 100 years.”
Yes, exactly like swallowed bubble gum stays in your stomach for SEVEN years.
Some constants in the Universe are without question — as long as they have Big Media’s blessing!
CO2 is only about 25% of the total greenhouse gases.
The whole "anthropogenic CO2 rise" idea thrashed vigorously here by Alexander Cockburn, a hard-core lefty:
Must be all the dry ice melting.
Uh...NO...WATER is the “chief greenhouse gas” as it comprises 95% of all such, same!
CO2 averages 3.5%....so....RELAX!!!
Sounds like they need to move the milestone out of the way.
