@elliswyatt @petergleick CO2 in the above is from the gas bubbles trapped in ice cores — there is older ice than 800000 years, but it has been chewed up and altered and complicated, thus not done yet (https://cp.copernicus.org/articles/18/1563/2022/cp-18-1563-2022.html). Before that, you can use pH from the ocean to infer CO2 in the atmosphere. http://www.p-co2.org/boron#
