CO2 at New Highs Despite Recession

Post by Appaholic »

'Seems like the increase is accelerating,' researcher says

OSLO - Levels of the main greenhouse gas in the atmosphere have risen to new highs in 2010 despite an economic slowdown in many nations that braked industrial output, data showed on Monday.

Carbon dioxide, measured at Norway's Zeppelin station on the Arctic Svalbard archipelago, rose to a median 393.71 parts per million of the atmosphere in the first two weeks of March from 393.17 in the same period of 2009, extending years of gains.

"Looking back at the data we have from Zeppelin since the end of the 1980s it seems like the increase is accelerating" Johan Stroem, of the Norwegian Polar Institute, said of the data compiled with Stockholm University.

Is China still finishing a new coal-fired power plant every two weeks? That would be my guess.

Or the increased number of politicians expelling CO2 while they pontificate on this new flavor of the day....

A good SCIENTIFIC analysis of the CO2/Temperature "lag" response. Alarmists put the cart before the horse...which science has disproven.
