Bud Bromley | August 3, 2022 Do the math. Net CO2 in air for 2020 was ~414 ppm, that’s 0.000414 * Human CO2 cannot exceed 2.58 ppm, that’s 0.00000258, i.e., the net CO2 increase due to all sources & sinks for year 2020 = 2.58 ppm. Net human CO2 cannot exceed 0.000258% of atmosphere. * 2.58/414 = 0.0062 = 0.62% Net human CO2 cannot exceed 0.62% of net total CO2 for 2020. In 1970, average net CO2 was 325.68 ppm * In 1969, average net CO2 was 324.62 ppm * 325.68 minus 324.62 = 1.06 ppm * For 2020, average …
