Isn’t this the opposite of truncated? They drill down each year’s cycle and show like 80 years of cycles.

The y axis doesn’t start at 0, making it look like the change has been a lot more drastic than it actually was (even though it’s still very bad). I think that’s what they’re referring to

To make it even more scary, it is accelerating It has increased 75 ppm in 30 years and it was 40 ppm in the first 30 years.

I mean, just the fact that we increased the ppm by ~100, or 1/3rd what it was, in just 60 years is terrifying. Let alone that it’s accelerating. And CO2 isn’t even the worst climate change gas. And there are many positive feedback loops getting exacerbated by the effects…

Good times
