new figures last week showed that atmospheric levels of the three main greenhouse gases—carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide—reached new all-time highs last year.
The global surface concentration of CO2, averaged across all 12 months of 2023, was 419.3 parts per million (ppm), an increase of 2.8 ppm during the year. This was the 12th consecutive year CO2 increased by more than 2 ppm,

@anneroth@systemli.socialDer jährliche PKS-Tag naht.
Zur Erinnerung: Die Polizeiliche Kriminalstatistik (PKS) sammelt, gegen wen ermittelt wird. Durch die Polizei.
D.h. falls die Polizei Schwarze und Schwarzhaarige öfter kontrolliert, dann tauchen die da auch öfter auf.
Dazu kommt der beliebte Vorwurf des 'Widerstands' bei vielen Demo-Festnahmen = Ermittlung in der PKS. Das erklärt einen guten Teil der hohen Zahlen von Straftaten durch 'Linksextremist*innen'.
