If the planet wasn't in such a perilous state, I might be able to see a funny side to this.

How many fizzy drinks is it going to take, to remove the Carbon Dioxide?

Especially when they are in plastic bottles!

Watch Carbon Dioxide Move Through Earth’s Atmosphere - NASA Science

What we’re looking at This global map shows concentrations of carbon dioxide as the gas moved through Earth’s atmosphere from January through March 2020, driven by wind patterns and atmospheric circulation.  Because of the model’s high resolution, you can zoom in and see carbon dioxide emissions rising from power plants, fires, and cities, then spreading […]

Finally the supporters of #BrexitShambles and the Tories have some good news. The UK’s #Greenhouse_gases emissions fell by 5.7% in 2023 to their lowest level since 1879, according to new analysis. Elsewhere this happens due to renewables, here its partly due to the collapsing economy. #ClimateChange https://www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-uk-emissions-in-2023-fell-to-lowest-level-since-1879/
