In case you missed this chart, it shows the predicted increase of #CO2 and #temperature in the #atmosphere (black lines) compared to current observations (red & blue lines).

The prediction was made back in 1982 by ExxonMobil in private documents.

They knew since 1970s that #FossilFuels would lead to #ClimateChange with "dramatic environmental effects before the year 2050.”

Did they care ? Obviously no !

@AlexSanterne I wouldn't be surprised if the small discrepancies we're seeing are due to the very limited effort that has gone into reducing emissions in the last decades, which ultimately is even more damning because it would imply that if these hadn't been curbed by corporate interests we could have done so much better.
