Why 350?350 ppm (parts per million) is the upper safety limit for atmospheric carbon dioxide and the inconvenient truth is that it's currently standing at 387 ppm. The Carbon Dioxide (CO2) level increases at an alarming rate from decade to decade, thus urging for calls to slow down the effects of climate change before irreversible damages are done to our home.
