Good visualizations make it easy to learn something important about a complicated system. This one’s time progression is scaled perfectly to show the role of natural carbon capture on a day-to-day and year-long basis. It also makes it clear how overwhelming our carbon output really is.
you were fine until that last sentence then you went full retard. the difference in scale from blue (good) to purple (bad) is a few parts per million. come back when you do enough research to determine whether 300ppm co2 is even impactful.

I intentionally used the qualitative term “overwhelming” because this makes it clear that for much of the year human carbon output overwhelms the natural capture system’s capacity.
To address what I think is the actual bee in your bonnet, I didn’t say anything about the long-term implications of human carbon output becuase this viz says absolutely nothing about that.
I’m generally happy to have discussions about the things I post, but I prefer them to be about the things I post and with grown-ups, so unless we’re actually discussing Tropic Thunder please take your “retard” talk down the hall. It’s not welcome here.
