What would happen to the temperature of Earth if carbon dioxide increase?
Scientists say that doubling pre-industrial carbon dioxide levels will likely cause global average surface temperature to rise between 1.5° and 4.5° Celsius (2.7° to 8.1° Fahrenheit) compared to pre-industrial temperatures. (Current concentrations are about 1.4 times pre-industrial levels.)
What will be the approximate value of CO2 in the atmosphere in the year 2050?
Without more ambitious policies, the Baseline projects that atmospheric concentration of GHG would reach almost 685 parts per million (ppm) CO2-equivalents by 2050.
What is the 2010 level of CO2 in the atmosphere?
390.1
The atmospheric level of carbon dioxide has been steadily rising since the 1960’s. In 2020, atmospheric carbon dioxide levels reached 414.24 parts per million, in comparison to 1960 levels which stood at about 316 parts per million….
| Characteristic | Concentration in parts per million |

| 2010 | 390.1 |
| 2009 | 387.64 |
| 2008 | 385.83 |
What is the approximate percent increase in carbon dioxide concentration from 1790 to 2007?
383 ppm

How does c02 affect temperature?
When there’s more CO2 in the atmosphere, it makes the atmosphere warmer by trapping heat. The increase in the burning of fossil fuels and other activities by human beings in the last 200+ years are contributing to temperature increases by releasing more CO2 into the atmosphere.
