so i was reading this artical today about a two mile long ice plug that was drilled out of dome C in antarctica. this was done to see the amounts of methane and carbon monoxide as far back as they could get in time. the previous ice plug that was taken in russia was 450,000 years old and the oldest to date. this one was 650,000 years old. it revealed that carbon monoxide is 27% higher and methane levels are 112% higher then 650,000 years ago. they also said that these are the highest levels seen probably in over millions of years. i guess you could say that this is real eh?
