Atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations

The atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases (GHGs) and other forcing agents, including cooling aerosols, reached 481ppm CO 2 e in 2023. This is close to the upper limit of the peak level that the IPCC states 'should not be exceeded if — with a 67% likelihood and not allowing a temperature overshoot — the global temperature increase is to be limited to 1.5 o C above pre-industrial levels'. If allowing for an overshoot, the peak level could be exceeded before 2028. The peak concentrations corresponding to a temperature increase of 2 o C by 2100 could be exceeded before 2036.
