Explanation of Solution
The anthropogenic activities have caused a disturbance in carbon flow between the atmosphere and Earth surface. The carbon dioxide emissions are increased gradually and been accumulating in the atmosphere. The “Keeling Curve” is regularly revised for the evaluation of carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere.
Climate change is associated with several factors, which include emission of carbon dioxide from combustion of fossil fuel, release of gases from industries, and burning of agricultural and industrial waste.
The figure represents the level of carbon emission and the temperature rise correlated with the emissions. The carbon emission is noted down from the year
