    Despite Pandemic Lockdowns, We Broke a Carbon Dioxide Record

    The world ground to a halt for parts of last year, but carbon dioxide continues to set records. Concentrations in the atmosphere of the greenhouse gas peaked last month, scientists said Monday, reaching a new historic monthly average high of 419 parts per million. That’s the highest average level in millions of years. Awesome!
