Is the World Economic Slowdown Reducing Co2 Levels in the Atmosphere?
This from Dr. Roy Spencer:
Several people have
asked me, Is the atmospheric CO2 increase slowing down from reduced
economic activity? The latest Mauna Loa data don't show any impact yet.
(I took the raw monthly values, detrended the time series, removed the
annual cycle, then added the trend back in).(UPDATE: I am NOT claiming
this is evidence of a natural source for the increase in CO2. I think
it's too early to conclude much of anything from this.)
