Black and white image of Eunice Foote
Ever heard of Eunice Foote, born today in 1819?
An incredible woman -scientist, inventor, & women's rights campaigner
Significantly, Foote was the first to show that rising CO2 levels could increase atmospheric temperature and affect climate, although rarely credited for this discovery
