great analysis expose - especially on how Nature is no longer a carbon sink!! That is stunningly difficult to believe. So CO2 ppm increased more than the increase in CO2 emissions - thereby erasing the 20% neutralization rate of co2 emissions that normally would occur by land.
the amount of carbon absorbed by land has temporarily collapsed. The final result was that forest, plants and soil – as a net category – absorbed almost no carbon.

In 2023, the hottest year ever recorded, preliminary findings by an international team of researchers show the amount of carbon absorbed by land has temporarily collapsed. The final result was that forest, plants and soil – as a net category – absorbed almost no carbon.
Wow land was not a net carbon sink in 2023!

looks like things will be accelerating much faster than expected.
"For the algae-eating zooplankton, melting sea ice is exposing them to more sunlight – a shift scientists say could keep them in the depths for longer, disrupting the vertical migration that stores carbon on the ocean floor."...
The models tend to show this happening rather slowly over the next 100 years or so,” says Prof Andrew Watson, head of Exeter University’s marine and atmospheric science group. “This might happen a lot quicker,” he says.
