    So you can see 17% oxygen

    Ehhh, if you made a translucent sphere that could hold a vacuum you would get the same outcome l.

    It would be close but but exactly the same. A vacuum would refract the light going through it differently than a bubble of gas. Though I think it would need to be pretty big to see it with the naked eye.

    There won't be that much CO2 for a long time, even if we increase our carbon output. Currently it stands at around 0.04%, third to argon at a bit under 1%. Oxygen is just under 21%. Oxygen and nitrogen together make up over 99% of the atmosphere (at sea level). That's for dry air, otherwise water vapour is at around 1% and the others reduced to fit that in.
