As if that even matters.
I doubt they kept accurate records of how much coal was burned back then...if any records. I'm also pretty sure in most western countries they burned more coal in the 18th, 19th and 20th century than they do in the 21st.
My hometown used to be a mining town, my grampy worked down the pit...there are no active mines now back there.
Basically they are guessing at coal consumption back during the industrial revolution...guessing isn't good science. -

Curiously missing from the article is the fact that this organization, the so-called Global Carbon Project, is another United Nations front, and we all know the United Nations is tied closely with the hoaxter frauds and political agendas of the World Economic Forum. ZERO credibility! -

Basically you are guessing at everything you've said in this post. -

“Nature is just eroding away very slowly,” Wagner said. As insects disappear, “we’re losing the limbs and the twigs of the tree of life. We’re tearing it apart. And we’re leaving behind a very simplified and ugly tree.”

2022-12-07 at 5:29 AM UTCIt's true that humans are destroying the environment, but at the same time, the environment is extremely resilient. Species which most thought were extinct are still "discovered" to this day. Nature has a whole lot of surprises. In fact, we still have not catalogued more than 10% of the total species of animals which are out there. For example, there are thousands and thousand of species of totally undiscovered animals in the depths of the oceans. Sure, species are dying, but that pales in comparison to the total volume of species on the planet.

2022-12-07 at 1:31 PM UTC'Humanity has become a weapon of mass extinction'
The challenges are daunting: one million species are at risk of extinction; one-third of all land is severely degraded and fertile soil is being lost; while pollution and climate change are accelerating degradation of the oceans.
Chemicals, plastics and air pollution are choking land, water and air, while planetary heating brought about by burning fossil fuels are causing climate chaos – from heatwaves and forest fires to droughts and floods.
"We are treating nature like a toilet," Guterres said bluntly.
"And ultimately, we are committing suicide by proxy" he added – with the impacts felt on jobs, hunger, disease and death.
Economic losses from ecosystem degradation, meanwhile, are estimated to stand at $3 trillion annually from 2030. -

False, ALL species are at risk of extinction. -
