Carbon dioxide in 2023 comparable to 4.3 billion years ago as global greenhouse gas levels hit all-time high: NOAA

Data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has revealed that global carbon dioxide levels reached a record high in 2023. This surge places us in a precarious position, mirroring atmospheric conditions from the Pliocene epoch, a period roughly 4.3 million years ago.
