However, scientists are increasingly concerned that carbon dioxide levels are not falling fast enough

The more interesting news is co2 levels are falling, when did that happen? Last thing I saw was us breaking through 430ppm.

co2 levels are falling

they are? I didn't see it when I skimmed the article

It's extremely irresponsible phrasing. CO2 is still increasing. They probably meant 'the increase in CO2 is not slowing as fast as it needs to'

They aren't, but the article says:

However, scientists are increasingly concerned that carbon dioxide levels are not falling fast enough and that further action may be needed to prevent catastrophic warming.

which is just a weird way of saying it, they aren't falling at all. Levels are increasing faster then ever. idk why the article says that, I pointed it out but obviously was a bit too lazy to find a different source.

Was trying to say it sarcastically, like "oh really when did that happen?" but it didn't come across when I reread 😔
