Missing Carbon: CO2 Growth in the last 400,000 Years (2005)

Synopsis

The animation shows a graph of carbon dioxide (on the y-axis) versus time (on the x-axis). First data is shown from about the last 400,000 years. Next, this graph slides to the left and a new graph slides on showing carbon dioxide from the last 1000 years. NOTE: the y-axis scale remains the same. Finally, a graph showing carbon dioxide from 1980 to 2005 is shown. The industrial revolution is shown as a blue line. Lake Vostok ice cores provide data from about 400,000 BC to about 4000 BC; Law…
