And we have only got CO2 to 400 parts per million from 280 ppm.

Do you know what an exponential curve is? Our use of fossil fuels has not been increasing linearly.

At that rate it'll be a cold day in Hell before we get CO2 even to 600ppm which would be a tiny fraction of what was in air once upon a time.

Do you know how the CO2 level got that high in the first place? Google "The Great Dying". It took millions of years for it to get back down to 600 ppm.
