Carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere is at the highest level in the last 800,000 years and continues to grow, which is the main cause of the record heating of the planet, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) was announced today.
The Global Climate Report states that 2023. year, the last for which reliable data available, carbon dioxide concentration was 420 particles per million (PPM), which is 151 percent more than in 1750. year.
WMO states that it corresponds to 3,276 gigotons (thousands of billion tons) carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Concentrations and other greenhouse gases, methane and nitrogen, were also at the highest levels in the last 800,000 years, and real-time data show that these levels continued to grow for last year.
Permanent growth of greenhouse gas emissions, together the effects of heating the Climate Phenomenon El Ninjo, is the main cause of global warming and the collection of temperature records 2023, and then 2024, WMO.
