Or very nearly, they have reached this milestone.

The National Geographic noted that the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is this high "for the first time in 55 years of measurement—and probably more than 3 million years of Earth history".[14]

However, that's not to say human activity hasn't sped up the process through greenhouse gas emissions. We need to cut down on emissions, but that problem starts with the power companies and large corporations. Not the people. I'm happy to use eco-friendly bulbs, loft insulation, etc, to reduce my carbon footprint, but that is but a drop in the ocean compared to large companies. Global governments need to focus on reducing the carbon footprint of these companies before I can take my footprint seriously.
