Excellent analysis. Can you sum up the fake carbon dioxide “crisis”?
Carbon dioxide is a VERY small constituent of the total atmosphere of earth, some 400 parts per million, and is relatively heavy at ambient temperatures, sinking to the bottom of the air and quickly absorbed by the surface waters of the earth, and by living plants in the process of photosynthesis, creating carbohydrates and free oxygen as a byproduct. Without carbon dioxide, there could not be adequate quantities of oxygen regenerated into the atmosphere, and there would be a widespread die-back of most animal life. Of course, the decomposing corpses would give off considerable carbon dioxide, quickly restoring the balance of carbon dioxide to its equilibrium levels, which vary between maybe 300 parts per million, up to 1,000 or so parts per million.
Carbon dioxide, as a “greenhouse” gas, is vastly less important to heat absorption and retention than a highly variable constituent of the atmosphere, water vapor. The water molecule can exist simultaneously as a solid (ice), a liquid (water) and as a gas (water vapor or steam), at the so-called “triple point”, 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Centigrade. Carbon dioxide cannot, as it can exist only as a gas at normal sea-level conditions, but under extreme cooling, it becomes a solid, which sublimates directly from a solid to the gaseous state as it warms, with no intermediate liquid state except under extreme pressure.
Without the liquid state, carbon dioxide cannot retain the heat energy, or release it, under normal atmospheric conditions as they exist on earth. So its effect on warming or cooling of the atmosphere is very minimal. But water, which absorbs considerable heat energy as it passes from solid (ice) to liquid (water) and on into gas (water vapor), also gives up that energy as well, as the temperature decreases, eventually reverting back to the solid form. This is what moderates the temperature of the atmosphere, and by conduction, radiation, or condensation/vaporization, keeps the rest of the earth in a relatively narrow band of temperature, something carbon dioxide cannot do.
