Up there, 10 to 50 kilometers above the Earth’s surface, ozone molecules absorb the sun’s ultraviolet light, protecting life far below.

Globally averaged concentrations of CO 2 reached 403.3 Emissions represent what goes into the atmosphere. About a quarter of the total emissions is taken up by the oceans and another quarter by the biosphere, reducing in this way the amount of CO 2 in the atmosphere.
