The classic Keeling curve, plotted upto jan 2011 in Sage with default aspect ~~ratio:~~ ratio for Sage List_plot:

~~I think it can be better with setting it default aspect ratio to one, so we’ll try that as well.~~

Here is a plot of the whole series but showing season corrected values : (also default aspect ratio)

I think it can be better with setting it default aspect ratio to one, so we’ll try that as well and add some major grid lines:

Trend - season corrected aslo with SAGE aspect ratio one:

Draft Code

Trying to see if TimeSeries, can be used better instead of this
