Three million years ago Paranthropus Boisei roamed the East African woods, existing on C4 plants according to scientists.

The CO2 level 3 ma was 400 ppm and this week the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii recorded that number after 3 ma of 270 ppm.

Beijing.
Kathmandu.
New York City.

How I wish I was there.
