The first UN climate conference in 1995 marked a pivotal moment in the global fight against climate change, with leaders urging reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. At that time, carbon dioxide levels were approximately 360.67 parts per million. Fast forward to today, and those levels have risen to 426.68 ppm, significantly above the scientifically recommended safe limit of 350 ppm.

The ongoing rise in carbon levels suggests that the planet is heading towards severe consequences if immediate action is not taken. As the author reflects on their last column, they emphasize that the facts about climate change are clear and concerning.
