According to paleo reconstructions, it has been tens of millions of years since the Earth had the levels of CO2 and corresponding radiative forcing that we may experience in just 90 years from now. Reconstruction of the CO2 levels over the past 45 million years The net radiative forcing due to changes in atmospheric CO2 concentration and total solar irradiance over the past 45 million years.
