This is very interesting. I hadn’t really thought about the composition of Venus’ atmosphere being so much carbon dioxide. I thought it was mostly nitrogen and sulfur. The presence of carbon dioxide in Venus’ atmosphere in such proportion is why we have global warming fear on Earth. They look at how hot it is and worry that Earth is going to go the same way. The reasoning is a real stretch because there is a trace amount of water in the atmosphere in the Sahara and we don’t think people will drown there from it.

Venus is mostly CO2 but compressed to 90 atmosphere.
The equivalent of 3000ft of water on Earth.
