Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Highest in 650,000 Years
WASHINGTON, DC, November 25, 2005 (ENS) - Levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide are the highest they have been in 650,000 years, according to the first in-depth analysis of tiny air bubbles trapped in an ice core from East Antarctica.
In two articles analyzing air from the ice core published in the journal "Science" today, European researchers have extended the greenhouse gas record back to 650,000 years before the present, adding 210,000 years to previous records.
Ever get the feeling that we're too late? Maybe not if you believe the Earth is 6000 years old & this is just God tricking us again.
