The comment was about the accuracy of the sensor, not about raising CO2 levels across the globe.

Sure. It just draws attention to the fact that a throwaway piece of advice for checking calibration of a CO2 sensor is ‘it should read 400-450ppm outside’ when a few short decades ago that advice would have been ‘it should read 300-350ppm outside’.

It’s like if someone said ‘you can check if your chatbot’s news feed is complete and up to date by asking it for ‘recent mass shootings’. There should be two or three in the past seven days’. It’s true and a valid methodology but holy crap does it say something dark about where we are.
