This mill initiated a massive feedback loop, transferring vast quantities of carbon long sequestered in the lithosphere directly into the atmosphere. The speed of this transition is structurally unprecedented; by 1831—a mere 60 years later—the isotopic signatures of global warming were already clearly recorded in the Arctic and tropical marine surface temperatures, showing how fast the anomaly took hold.
