Everyone let's mass tweet!
Every Sunday 19:00 UTC (gets large chunk of English speaking world at a sensible time).
"Humans have increased the CO₂ concentration 50% from 280ppm to 420ppm. We are now responsible for 33% of the atmosphere's CO₂. #OneThirdCO2"
Please share.
Likely responses:
"Humans only responsible for 3%"
That is a figure that's been bandied about for decades, one that is simply false.

New animation showing CO₂ concentration from the Industrial Revolution to present day using particle densities.
They will use awful, spiteful language to get you to engage.
Under no circumstances do that!
The Twitter algorithm loves engagement especially if you reply! Tit-for-tat threads get more exposure than single replies with large RT and like counts...
