Pre-industrial CO2 levels (1820) were higher than today
I was not aware of this at all - and frankly when I listened... it chocked me !
I am not sure if this has been highlighted before, but also need to add, that I have not searched in the forum deeper as I get too many results, going into all kinds of directions). So, instead I simply do an excerpt of German Nuoviso's podcast/video, with the theme "Depopulation though Climate protection ?"
The so called preindustrial levels of CO2 in the atmosphere were
higher than the levels we measure today.
Apparently plenty of chemical analysis have been done since 1820, by a guy (whose name i still have to listen out of the video) - a scientist who in fact defined (still) the ISO norm for safe indoor CO2 levels, both in Germany as well for the whole EU today. [I think this i caught that info from an earlier podcast also with Markus Fiedler, back in July 2023) - but i can't recall the name of that scientist. He wasn't just anybody... but somebody who did very careful science.
But one thing is for sure: the old books written back in the days (1820-55) still show that the amount of CO2 were clearly a lot higher - while the proclaimed 280 ppm are in reality just a few downward spikes - on which the whole climate change official narrative has been pinned on.

In a very exciting program on the question of how much eugenics is actually in the climate protection agenda, Aron Morhoff talks to Wikihausen maker Markus Fiedler and book author Tom-Oliver Regenauer.
Excerpt:
•
Ernst Georg Beck, which was a colleague to Markus Fiedler in the podcast, specialized into researching the chemical analysis regarding CO2 levels in the past, before 1900.
The CO2 levels since 1880 - the numbers that are given to us, are correct.
The supposed 280 ppm prior 1900, are incorrect.
The official date for the start of the industrial revolution is set to around 1850. That was when the CO2 coincidences with largely falling CO2 levels in the atmosphere (albeit there was a peak around 1855 with 390 ppm
Air bubbles in ice cores - are exposed to 20 different chemical changes though time, making measuring rather imprecise - and far too low (!) Zbigniew Jaworoski is one of outmost qualified specialist in ice cores analysis. Jaworoski also stated
"Isn't it funny. Before 1985, CO2 levels up to 2500 ppm have been found in ice cores - but today "science" only finds 280 ppm." IPPC was founded in 1988... do there might be a convenient connection to be found. A guy "Calendar" started the idea in 1960 claiming "Before industrial times, the CO2 levels were only 280 ppm and now they are high". Since that time, all CO2 level values have been fixated to those "280" ppm.
Even if the earliest measurements where not as exact as those we perform today, but the margins are still smaller and cannot explain the much higher levels of CO2 in the past vs today.
90000 chemical measurements have been done between 1820 - 1955.
26 work groups connected to Ernst Georg Beck, have been looking into the chemical analysis data, so this work isn't just some average analysis, but major ground work.
The curves which Ernst Georg Beck uses in his charts,
are already 11 years** averages (!). So, some peaks even reached 620 ppm but are not visible in the graphic charts due to the 11 year averaging (**PS: in the chart i found on the internet and shown above, 5 years average is used)
The nudging/scam is a classic one: the narrative simply picks the lowest (local) CO2 values between the years of 1880-85, fixes it - and makes it "the new standard - how it should be" to which all newer CO2 measurements have to be compared with, and saying "Bad. So Baaaaad people. Buhu. " When in reality, most years almost all measurements of CO2 were so much higher...
people are not responsible for the CO2 levels in the atmosphere. It ain't man made (well, we knew this already). Still, I felt like wow - i had no idea that old books exist with careful CO2 measurements which actually show that the CO2 levels were in fact higher than they are today in 2023.
the earliest IPPC reports where relatively "honest", but eventually got increasingly manipulated and framed according the PTB desires to steer the "climate change" narrative. I would say today's IPPC reports reached a level of Hysterical™. As everything else these days.
Markus Fiedler goes in great depth about plants and CO2 - and that there are two different categories of plants; C3 and C4 describing the assimilation of how to take up CO2. Most plants are of category C3 type. Enzyme; "RuBisCo" [Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase] - is the enzyme which is capable of fixating CO2 into sugar. While C4 type of plants have an extra process prior, that when the levels of atmospheric CO2 is very low - these plants can still take up CO2.
C3 plants go into saturation at a CO2 levels of 1000-1400 (?) ppm.
C4 plants (example: Corn) go into CO2 saturation at a level of 450 ppm
What does that mean ? If a plant reaches it's saturation, it does not matter how much more CO2 is present in the atmosphere, the plants can't take up more.
When C3 plants get twice the amount of CO2 - they grow twice as much.
We see a lot of greening in the areas that surround desert - because the higher amount of CO2 allows the the plants to grow, despite great heat (the latter results into that the plant has to (almost) close it pores [stomata] on the lower side of its leafs in order not to loose too much water - yet the higher amount of CO2, allows the plant still to take it up though its almost closed pores. (if it would have closed pores/stomata, it cannot take up CO2)
Oceans have a CO2 uptake capacity of 39 giga tonnes annually, while humanity releases 6 giga tonnes annually.
