Have CO2 emissions gone down since last year? If so why/how?
Have CO2 emissions gone down since last year? If so why/how?
No, it hasn't.
August 2013: 395.15 ppm
August 2012: 392.41 ppm
(that monthly value should be quite close to the yearly average. The peak month value is over 399 for 2013)
Now there's always a natural variation due to the seasons (plants uses co2 after all), so if you cherrypick the highest value for 2012 vs the lowest for 2013, it'll have dropped.
That's the equivalent of proving regional cooling by comparing July values vs Januari values though.

We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.
