Figure 1. The Keeling Curve: climate change's most iconic image. The curve's steady year-by-year increase in CO2 due to burning of coal, oil, and natural gas has wriggles on top of it, due to the natural seasonal cycle in CO2--plants suck in CO2 during the Northern Hemisphere growing season, then release it during the winter.

Or take the blue pill, put your fingers in your ears, close your eyes and
pretend that it's all going to be sorted out by "someone" real soon now
because we've always been clever little tool monkeys and that's not going
to change is it?
