Ok that explains one of the questions I had about CO2 reflecting the sun’s energy or not- But even if it isn’t absorbed, can it be reflected by CO2?
As for your other question, please do a web search for "radiation in participating media".
[[”radiation in participating media”.]]
Does nothing to explain how 0.04% of our atmosphere can be causing climate change on a global scale- all it basically says is that CO2 CAN transfer heat- it doesn’t say on what scale- and from I ve read, CO2 isin’t even a very efficient heat transferer compared with other mechanisms/processes- and like I mentioned before, even the TINY amount of heat being transferred back to earth will dissipate mostly, and this TINY amount can’t possibly be causing global climate change-
Simply pointing me to article that explain that CO2 can transfer heat does nothing to explain how such a small amount of CO2 can be causing massive global climate change-
Nor does it explain how that despite the fact that we’ve pumped the most CO2 into our atmosphere over the last 20 years than we ever have (YET it is STILL a very tiny fraction of our atmosphere), our earth has remained flat temperature wise for nearly 20 years now- That directly contradicts the alarmist’s claims that CO2 ‘causes climate change’- the earth should have bee3n steadily and consistently warming these past 20 years-
NOT remaining flat like it has been-
You and others avoid answering these two questions- I don’t need to know that CO2 can transfer heat- that is a known fact- what I need to know is how just 0.04% of our atmosphere can possibly be causing global climate change- There simply is nowhere’s near enough CO2 In the atmosphere to be causing massive climate change- AND there is the inconvenient truth that despite increased CO2 levels by man, the temps have remained flat- contradicting the claims that CO2 by man is causing global climate change
