Unh, maybe the heat is re-radiating FROM earth on the dark side of the world?

As I recall, the earth rotates once every 24 hours, leaving just about half the world faced AWAY from the sun during that period.

A period during which that part of the earth is NOT receiving radiation from the sun.

As long as there is liquid water on the surface somewhere, this temperature regulation mechanism will continue working just fine, thank you.

Occam's Razor says it's simply hiding in the crevices of CO2 molecules but you go ahead and believe that solar radiation is affecting the Earth from 93 million miles away.
