US: The Carbon dioxide (CO2) levels peaked more than 50 per cent higher than pre-industrial levels in May, comparable to levels seen about 4 million years ago, according to scientists. 美国:科学家表示,5月份,二氧化碳(CO2)浓度达到峰值,比工业化前水平高出50%以上,与大约400万年前的水平相当。 Th...
The last time CO2 levels were as high as today, ocean waters drowned the lands where big cities like Houston, Miami, and New York City now exist. It’s a time called the Pliocene (上新世) or mid-Pliocene, some 3 million years ago, when sea levels were around 30 feet higher (but po...
The first hornwort pyrenoids appeared ~100 million years ago, a time that coincided with a drastic decline of atmospheric CO2 levels. However, other younger pyrenoid-containing clades originated during periods with higher atmospheric CO2 levels and pyrenoids were apparently lost in hornwort clades ...
Junium 8 4,5, The emergence of forests on Earth (~385 million years ago, Ma)1 has been linked to an order-of-magnitude decline in atmospheric CO2 levels and global climatic cooling by altering continental weathering processes, but observa- tional constraints on atmospheric CO2 before the ...
Over the last 3 million years (Ma), the Earth has cooled substantially and transitioned from a single-pole glaciation to a stage with major glaciations on both poles. In the past 1 Ma, the period of glacial cycles switched from ~41 thousand years (ky) to ~100 ky (mid-Pleistocene ...

played a distinct role in climate variability during the mPWP. They also facilitate ongoing data-model comparisons and suggest that, at present rates of human emissions, there will be more CO2in Earth’s atmosphere by 2025 than at any time in at least the last 3.3 million years....
Average annual atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide (CO₂) reached a record high of 424.61 parts per million (ppm) in 2024. Monthly atmospheric CO₂ concentrations peaked that year in June, at 426.91 ppm. Human activities have caused CO₂ concentrations to soar Annual CO₂ concentrations...
Using a new computer simulation,researchers at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK), in Germany, found that the last time the earth’s atmosphere had a CO2 concentration as high as today’s was during the Pliocene epoch, the geological period 2.6-5.3 million years ago. CO2...
