Air - Greenhouse Gases

Our carbon emissions are still increasing!

"More than half of all industrial emissions of carbon dioxide since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution will have been released since 1988" - Dr. Peter C. Frumhoff, Director of science and policy at the Union of Concerned Scientists


Carbon dioxide concentrations are at a record high of 411 parts per million (ppm) (an increase of over 45% on pre-industrial levels). Concentrations are now at the highest levels in at least the last 3 million years (i.e. since before modern humans had even evolved on this planet)

To stabilise temperatures net-emissions need to reach zero! The longer we delay the harder it becomes. Unfortunately, because of years of delay and inaction we have reached a crisis where we will only to meet our targets if we to take urgent emergency action!
