The reason that the absorption of heat by water vapor is ignored is that the powers-that-be cannot gain control. OTOH, CO2 is a feature of manufacturing and transportation. Control CO2 and you control everybody and everything.
On a clear night, imagine two cars: One, parked overnight in the street; the other, under a carport. On occasion it will be observed that the car in the street is covered with dew while the car under the carport has no water droplets. The car in the street has lost radiant heat to space and cooled enough to cause water to condense. The car in the carport cannot “see” space, so it’s heat loss is less; hence, no dew. The effect is called black body radiation. The car in the street lost heat energy to space while the carport prevented the loss of heat from that car.
Science is defined as a body of information obtained by methods based on observation. Physics, chemistry and other lab sciences enjoy the ability to repeat experiments in order to test whether results are reproducible.
Historical sciences don’t enjoy the repeatability. Examples are geology, evolution, etc. These sciences depend on observation but are not able to go back in time to repeat the experiment
Then, there are the really fuzzy sciences such as sociology and psychology. They are fuzzy because of the wide variation in the objects that are being observed.
If it ain’t falsifiable, it’s opinion.
