<< Carbon Dioxide Levels Jumped by a Record Amount, U.N. Says >>

OK, even assuming that information isn't a pack of lies, why is that vile looking woman complaining to Trump?

She needs to be bitching to the Chinese, not Trump. .

CO2 has a number of feedback mechanisms that tend to amplify its changes, up or down. A warming climate means more fires because of drying. Melting ice and tundra and drying of bogs exposes carbon sequestered in biomass to oxidation. Melting permafrost and warming oceans triggers clathrate decomposition, which is oxidized to CO2 in a couple of centuries and is a potent greenhouse gas in and of itself. There is some evidence that the decrease in ice load can trigger volcanoes. At least the Ring Of Fire seems to be waking up. And the cherry on top is warmer water can hold less dissolved gasses that colder water. So the CO2 the oceans has dissolved tends to belch out before the coccolithophores have a chance to sequester it.

Many of those conditions are reversible when the climate cools. But that isn't what is happening.
