Earliest atmosphere carbondioxide measurements are from 1894. They suggest that CO2 level was 446 ppm at that time. Measures were made by professional scientists and verified by chemie Nobel prize winners. Current CO2 levels are about 410 ppm.
Claims that say were are now having highest C02 levels ever are false. They are used only to get funding for environment saving industry.

Svante Arrhenius, who is usually referred as inventor of greenhouse effect, did use these values as base for his calculations. 1903 he got his Nobel prize for physical chemistry. He study hard those issues way before Keeling.
0.466gr to gram *(1/15.432)=0.03019699grams =0.000029228798497034642atm/sqcm ~29ppm CO2
If that's actually co2 in GRAMS and not grains then
.466grams co2=0.00045101391058338224atm/sqcm =451ppm co2
So something ain't right here.
James Kelly
No. Thats grams like kilograms.
We use french revolution measures here in europe. Not those old biblical miles and farhenhights you do.
Measures are accurate. It was era of steam engines and smog. So values were much higher. Which is a proven scientific fact.
Aaron Peterson
Ah there it is. Carbon Dioxide is 44 g/Mole while carbonic acid is 62g/mole. That's a difference of 18 grams per mole. So assume a difference of 29% from my original calculation 451-(451*0.29)=320ppm.
That's pretty similar to the historical numbers.

>were are now having highest C02 levels ever are false You can go even further back than that, CO2 in dinosaur times was supposedly extremely high, and that's exactly what allowed for more vegetation and, as a result, larger and more diverse types of animals being able to survive.

Grains is in the fucking Troy system, you mongoloid.
Don't you dare shoehorn your evolution propaganda, you infidel

Lets act properly or I have to ban you. Dinosaurs did not exists and so did not ancient greece. Those are all stories for kids. CO2 is serious business.
That mole thing puzzles me though. Mole values are 62 and 44 as stated. Maybe there is some sense in that. Must study it scientifically. Thanks user.

Somebody knows how to actually calculate chemistry 'n stuff.
Dinosaurs did exist! There was an episode on infinite solutions on how to find your own small dinosaurs: youtube.com/watch?v=dyii4nndOMM

You said that 320 ppm was pretty similar to historical numbers. Now that if year 1894 it was 320 ppm, how can it be 315 ppm at year 1960 as stated in german user data? Makes no sense to me.
