The earth is increasingly
Experts warn that the Earth is becoming an increasingly dangerous place and more difficult to live with future generations in the past 800,000 years.
According to the Usa Today newspaper, the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) - the gas that is the main cause of the situation , also called , in April this year has just reached a record in the past 800,000 years.

Specifically, volumetric CO2 concentration has shot up to 410 ppm, which means that in 1m 3 of air there is 410mg of CO2.
According to Scripps Institution of Oceanographic monitoring data, the average concentration of airborne CO 2 measured in April also increased by 30% compared to the global CO 2 concentration since the time of human We begin to measure this concentration in 1958.
According to Scripps Institute, before starting the Industrial Revolution period, CO 2 also fluctuated at high levels, but never exceeded 300 ppm.
"We continue to burn fossil fuels. CO 2 continues to accumulate," said Ralph Keeling, the longest-running expert on Earth's CO 2 concentration on the Scripps Institution of Oceanography . In the air, it is basically that.
Katharine Hayhoe, a weather scientist at the Texas University of Technology, expressed concern: "What worries me the most is not because we have just passed another milestone, but the trend continues to increase." That means we are continuing to keep the speed forward, with an unprecedented experience on our planet, the only home we have. "
The World Meteorological Organization said that adding gases like carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide (N 2 O) is exacerbating climate change and making "our planet become dangerous." It's dangerous and can't be with future generations. "
