  1. An excellent analysis of CO2 emissions, how they have increased over recent decades, and iow they distribute between the atmosphere and the oceans.

    ‘CO2 vs the COPs’

    ‘Since 1990, at the Rio Summit, world leaders have met annually and pledged to stop this “speeding freight train” before it gets too dangerous. Right now they are meeting in Katowice, Poland, for the twenty-fourth year in a row, at a United Nations Conference of the Parties (COP 24). ”

    Despite decades of global promises and negotiations CO2 levels have not stabilized. Not only are emissions still rising, they are actually accelerating upwards.….

    … As you can see, in the decade of the Rio Summit and the Kyoto Accord, the atmosphere was gaining around 12 GtCO2 per year. The next decade brought us the Copenhagen Accord and an average of 15 GtCO2 per year. And now, in this decade of the Paris Agreement, the atmosphere is gaining nearly 19 GtCO2, on average, each year.’
