Fossil fuels drove most of the growth & were almost 80% of supply in 2000.

Atmospheric CO 2 measured at Mauna Loa, Hawaii. Source: NOAA Climate Monitoring and Diagnostic Laboratory Direct measurements of CO 2 show continued rise Concentration reached 380 ppmv in 2005 Fossil-fuel origin of most of the increase is confirmed by reduction in C-14 concentration.

The last 400 and next 100 years of global temperature Mid-range scenarios are heading for T‘s last seen 30 million years ago.
