Just...just let the article do the talking.

Nice try, but I know what I'm talking about. Excluding the time before our atmosphere developed on earth, our carbon levels have remained relatively constant, only surging up and down with each ice age. And we know that because of the evidence extracted from ice cores that show this pattern repeating for 650,000 years. It's only until 1950 and after that carbon levels have hit an all time high.

Define "when our atmosphere developed" Are we talking about post- Cambrian explosion here?

I was referring to that, yes.

I think you're confusing what I was saying. The second graph I have linked shows the relationship between CO2 and temperature and how they're correlated. This graph only shows the change in temperature which is misleading when we're talking about how carbon levels influence temperature.
