Wow, way to fuck up the headline No rise in the atmospheric fraction of CO2 - i.e. as we add more, carbon sinks are continuing to pull the same percentage out

Wow, way to fuck up the headline
No rise in the atmospheric fraction of CO2 - i.e. as we add more, carbon sinks are continuing to pull the same percentage out of the atmosphere as they did previously, according to this new study
The total amount in the atmosphere is still skyrocketing and many scientists question how long the oceans can continue absorbing the CO2(which is causing them to acidify)

I'm no expert in climatology, but the science of other complex systems (e.g. medicine) often produce conflicting studies. Why should climatology be any different?
