According to the Mauna Loa Observatory, the Earth’s CO2 emissions have now reached over 390 parts per million.
Here’s a snapshot of what it was before now:
September 1981: 348.36
September 1991: 352.37
September 2001: 368.53
September 2011: 390.02
September 2021: ???.??
People who think the Mayans are right about the world ending in 2012 need not worry about CO2 emissions. Who knows, maybe the Mayans were right?
The rumours are true. Powershift is coming! In October, over 1000 young people will gather in Brisbane and begin the transition to a better future for us and the planet.
I’m 24, from Armidale and I want to help change the world, so I’ll be there! Will you?
