His Maggotcy King Musk Has Apparently Shut the Oldest Continuous Carbon Dioxide Monitoring Site in the World.

The link, which I have accessed daily for many years is now dead. There is no information as to whether the lab itself has been shut and the scientists there have been fired.

Dead link:

...until 2024 blew 2016 away.

Of course, in 2015, 1998 was shocking.

In 1997, 1988 was shocking, at least to anyone who was looking. (I wasn't, my attention was drawn to it by Al Gore.)

There's noise of course, things like Covid and economic down turns, but the trend is clearly quadratic (parabolic) when one smoothes the data. (I suspect it may even be cubic with, thankfully, a low coefficient for the first term.)

I still, perhaps naively, believe it is technically feasible to do something, but obviously not politically. It is startling for me as the end of my life approaches to see a dark age of ignorance transcendent rising.
