It’s less about total amounts and much more about rate of change. The actual issue is the rate of change acceleration that the industrial era has seen. The rate of change is the fastest in recorded human history. Obviously the screeching freak outs over this issue are absurd, but that doesn’t change the fact that accelerating rate of change of most systems is generally hard to manage for biological entities.

I can intuitively take this at face value, except that coldest areas are the ones most affected, and are generally “life deserts.” I think largely the most reliable connection to higher CO2 levels post industrial age is what NASA terms, “the great greening.” The earth is literally visibly greener, and if you test this in any controlled environment with slightly higher CO2 levels, plants grow faster, healthier, and a deeper green.
