The World Trade Centre fell with less fanfare that the United Nations' worry about carbon dioxide:

Carbon dioxide levels grew at record pace in 2016, U.N. says

GENEVA (Reuters) - The amount of carbon dioxide in the earth’s atmosphere grew at record rate in 2016 to a level not seen for millions of years, potentially fuelling a 20-metre rise in sea levels and adding 3 degrees to temperatures, the United Nations said on Monday. 

See for yourself:

In New Delhi thick fog is made of dry ice. If we could stop them using it in such a warm climate it might serve the planet's worriest sub-species. 

Atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) the main man-made greenhouse gas, hit 403.3 parts per million, up from 400.0 in 2015, the U.N. World Meteorological Organization said in its annual Greenhouse Gas Bulletin.

That growth rate was 50 percent faster than the average over the past decade, driving CO2 levels 45 percent above pre-industrial levels and further outside the range of 180-280 ppm seen in recent cycles of ice ages and warmer periods. 

So how perishingly perishing are things? 

I case you missed it, it has risen by 3.3 parts per million.

But do you really trust the United nations to tell you facts when they are worse than fake news?

They are fake politics! What could be worse than fake politics?

I can not tell you what to believe believe it or not, the fairest comment I can make is for you to believe it or not. But let me ask first, did the bad news ever suggest this gain in carbon is unnatural?
Does anyone know anything about any of this?

You can trawl all this data indefinitely but it will not tell you one iota more than the little we know about air pollution. Yes it is a bad thing and yes trees and vegetables protect us from it with there international screening -even as they extract the pollution and return it into the ground for us.

But what of man made pollution?

Is there any reason to suspect that it has increased since the last two years?

How will industry measure any such events?

A lot more easily than I suspect can be said for vulcanologists. But leaving aside actual intelligence, as it is in the hands of the United Nations and that is unrelaible at best, fakery at its worst...

It is reasonable to assume carbon dioxide levels have not increased much since George Bush, is it?

A balanced supposition would thus mean that volcanic eruptions are the more likely source, is that not so?
