The safe upper limit for atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) is 350 parts per million. The current level is 390 ppm, which is way too high. This dangerous level leads to ice melting, climate disruption and ocean acidification. Scientists are urging decision makers to act and bring the level down to 350 ppm.
The media is treating climate change more as a political issue rather than a scientific one. The presentation of the subject is therefore “balanced”, even though there is overwhelming scientific evidence that the planet is dangerously warming up. Worse, science is losing the media war to conservative lobbies.
Climate change is happening, and its impact will be disastrous for the planet. The global mean temperature of the planet is bound to increase by 2°C or more unless global greenhouse gas emissions are reduced by at least 50% of the 1990 level by 2050. However, there are no plausible reason to believe that we [...]
