An image and caption from a 1912 article in Popular Mechanics that lays out the basics of climate change. They were a bit off on the timing, but we've known about this for a long time.

The text reads:

The furnaces of the world are now building about 2,000,000,000 tons of coal a year. When this is burned, uniting with oxygen, it adds about 7,000,000,000 tons of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere yearly. This tends to make the air a more effective blanket for the earth and raise its temperature. The effect may be considerable in a few centuries.
