Scripps Oceanography scientists calculated a May monthly average of 430.2 ppm for 2025, an increase of 3.5 ppm over May 2024’s measurement of 426.7 ppm. Scientists with NOAA’s Global Monitoring Laboratory reported an average of 430.5 ppm, an increase of 3.6 ppm over last year.

“Another year, another record,” said Ralph Keeling, director of the Scripps CO2 Program. “It’s sad.”

Its not just climbing the rate of growth is accelerating. Most of the buildup has been since 2010 as well.

Fact is we are not taking this seriously. The picture is pretty grim. All of the worst things seem to be happening at once. Like some fucked up fiction where only the bad guys win.
