You dismiss this increase as if the small percentage of the total atmosphere that CO2 makes up is a relevant statistic. It's not - you're using big numbers not related to make it sound like the situation is smaller than it is.
Are you expecting it to get to 1 part per thousand, or something? That's not the risk area - the risk area is here, at ~400ppm.

Actually it looks like a steep increase to me from the last 60 years. Also, these are numbers we'd like to be doing down, not increasing even faster.
The situation is dire.
