There’s a lot of misleading information. If I understood right, it says that clouds don’t trap heat, but instead transfer it from the upper atmosphere. No, they pretty much trap heat by reflecting it back to the surface. I don’t doubt that the greenhouse effect is real, only that humans are a significant contribution, or that the effect of CO2 is as straight forwardly terrible as they’d have us believe.

It is very clear that the Earth neither heats nor cools outside the sweet spot where life thrives.

Billions of years of evidence.

There is a system that cools when it is too hot, and a system that heats when it is too cool. I believe the answer could be shown by anyone with a reasonable intelligence that since water vapor is 95% of the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and abouty 400 times more effective in heating or cooling the planet than CO2, we might look to the “easy” answer on this one.
