Bernhardt: I Haven't 'Lost Sleep' Over Record CO2 Levels

"Last week the Mauna Loa Observatory observed the highest levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere ever documented"

"Donald Trump’s interior secretary hasn’t “lost sleep over”, the record-breaking levels of pollution heating the planet, he told US lawmakers in an oversight hearing.

The Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii observed carbon dioxide levels of 415 parts per million in the atmosphere on Friday – the highest ever documented.

Asked to rank his concern on a scale of 1 to 10, by the Pennsylvania Democratic congressman Matt Cartwright, David Bernhardt pointed to US climate progress."
