But we can ask ourselves, how much of the original 13C depleted anthro molecules still reside in the atmosphere, from the first halve GtC in the far past, after 150 years, to the last 8
GtC from last year after one year.
Knowing that these are diluted by a yearly exchange of about 90
GtC from the 13C rich deep ocean waters (vegetation plays a minor role in this), we don't expect to find much anthro CO2 (labeled with a low d13C per mil) in the atmosphere.
That means that about 184
GtC from the 300 + GtC emissions of the past 150 + years has accumulated as mass in the atmosphere.
Last figures available show about 7 GtC / yr from industrial (fossil fuel / cement) and ~ 2
GtC from deforestation.
I had to «cherry - pick» my number of 250
GtC from a collection of similar propositions, which came down to the IGBP video I used as the template.
«Total cumulative emissions from 1870 to 2013 were 390 ± 20
GtC from fossil fuels and cement, and 145 ± 50 from land use change.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 2013 estimated that cumulative carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels and cement production — from 1750 to 2011 — was about 365 billion metric tonnes as carbon (GtC), with another 180
GtC from deforestation and agriculture.
That is true, but both goals, extracting 100
GtC from the atmosphere via improved forestry and agricultural practices (with possibly some assistance from CCS technology) and limiting additional net change of non-CO2 forcings to zero, are feasible and probably much easier than the principal task of limiting additional fossil fuel emissions to 130 GtC.
Cumulative fossil fuel emissions in this scenario are ∼ 129
GtC from 2013 to 2050, with an additional 14 GtC by 2100.
Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels and cement production — from 1750 to 2011 — was about 365 billion metric tonnes as carbon (GtC), with another 180
GtC from deforestation and agriculture.
The biosphere takes out some 60 (or 120, depending of the estimates)
GtC from the atmosphere in spring - summer - fall, and largely gives that back in fall - winter - spring.
An alternative way of looking at this would be, for a concentration - defined pathway, we could instead subtract that 280
GtC from the human inputs of carbon over the 21st Century to produce the same GHG forcing.
The resolution of the sponges is 2 - 4 years and the accuracy of the measurements is good enough to detect an addition of 4
GtC from the oceans or 1
GtC from vegetation decay.
Natural emissions total: 198.2 GtC (primarily 78.4
GtC from ocean outgassing, and 118.7
GtC from total respiration and fire)
If I have your numbers aright (a dangerous assumption, granted), added to an already emitted 500 GtC, 139
GtC from oil, 100
GtC from Gas, 230
GtC from Canadian tar sands, 846
GtC from coal, bringing this fossil fuel total to circe 1,800 GtC.
If one takes as the total emissions a «natural» part (60
GtC from soils + 60
GtC from land plants) and the 7 GtC fossil emissions as anthropogenic part, the anthropogenic portion is about 5 % (7 of 127 billion tons of carbon) as cited in the Welt article.
I recently purchased an AMG
GTC from Richard Rollnick.
That is true, but both goals, extracting 100
GtC from the atmosphere via improved forestry and agricultural practices (with possibly some assistance from CCS technology) and limiting additional net change of non-CO2 forcings to zero, are feasible and probably much easier than the principal task of limiting additional fossil fuel emissions to 130 GtC.
Cumulative fossil fuel emissions in this scenario are ∼ 129
GtC from 2013 to 2050, with an additional 14 GtC by 2100.
So to reach 350 ppm from just the current level requires removing about 185
GtC from the active carbon cycle.

Complete restoration of deforested areas is unrealistic, yet 100
