carbon dioxide levels
Greenhouse gas measurement
Carbon dioxide levels refers to the concentration of CO₂ in a given environment, most often the atmosphere.
The term dominates climate discussions, where rising levels correlate with global warming: Carbon dioxide levels have increased 50% since the Industrial Revolution.
In indoor contexts, high levels indicate poor ventilation: The carbon dioxide levels in this conference room are making everyone drowsy.
