...not to mention CO2 in the Arctic. [from the same issue of NS:]

"Levels are at a new high," said Kim Holmen, research director of the
Norwegian Polar Institute, which oversees the Zeppelin measuring
station on the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard, about 1200 kilometres
(750 miles) from the North Pole.

He said that concentrations of carbon dioxide, ... had risen to
390 parts per million from 388 ppm a year ago.

Levels ...are ... above the 270 ppm level seen before the Industrial Revolution
of the 18th century.

Holmen said the increase of 2 ppm from 2006 reflected an accelerating rise
in recent years. "When I was young, scientists were talking about 1 ppm rises"
every year, he said. "Since 2000, it has been [higher ]."
