  1. Between year 1 (the start of the 1st century) and year 1400 the planet's average surface temperature swung up and down in the range of 0.4°F. For the next 500 years the planet's average surface temperature lowered a bit(0.2°F) but still only swung up and down in the range of 0.4°F. From 1970 to 2023 the planet's average surface temperature have risen 2.1°F. CO2 levels ppm(parts per million) Year 1850: 285 ppm Year 1900: 295 ppm Year 1950: 311 ppm Year 1960: 317 ppm Year 1970: 325 ppm Year 1980: 338 ppm Year 1990: 354 ppm Year 2000: 369 ppm Year 2010: 389 ppm Year 2020: 413 ppm Year 2024(June): 427 ppm

  3. I am sorry to inform you but you really do not know what you are talking about. During the Trump administration the "break-even" (production vs consumption and imports vs exports) was attained. Since then it has just been better and better. Energy independence have been there since 2019.

  4. How important is it to actually know what you are talking about? "Energy independence" was reached in 2019, meaning consumption + imports vs production + exports broke even. Since then it has only become better and better, meaning the America is much more "energy independent" today than in 2019.
