This kind of article is so sick because it totally fails to understand Planck's Radiation Law and its implications. Without that, the wildest errors are unstoppable.
To put it in simplest terms, a black body (Planck) radiator at temperature T attempts to cool by emitting a characteristic spectrum of radiation that peaks at the Wien wavelength, which is inversely proportional to T. This means that the torrent of emitted photons has a temperature of T because when absorbed by another object it can't raise its temperature higher than T. This is how thermal equilibrium is achieved via radiation.
But the U.N. IPCC octopus has totally falsified this simple physics with the claim that any radiation of any wavelength if emitted in enough quantity can raise the temperature of an absorbing object by any amount. Hence, radiation from CO2 is capable of raising global temperatures by several C, indeed, already has, because the "vacuum" temperature of the Earth sans atmosphere is 252K, while the observed temperature is 288K, which supposedly proves the heating power of CO2 without really proving anything. If you look into where the 252K figure came from, you will find a beehive of lies and a pure fairy story that works backward to make the numbers come out.
Zonk! CO2's radiation absorption/emission wavelength of 15 microns has a Planck radiation temperature of -80C, which can't melt an ice cube and can't raise the temperature of anything higher than -80C, which is colder than dry ice. Thus the whole edifice of CO2 global warming and all its fancy calculations is revealed to be a gigantic fake physics hoax designed by hardcore global Marxists to frame CO2 as evil in order to scare people into bowing to their demands to shut down the fossil fuel industry, not realizing they will be destroying their own happy wealthy comfortable lifestyles. After that, global Marxism can't be stopped.
This basic thermal physics is the iceberg that will sink the IPCC ship given enough time, despite their desperate sprint for the cash combined with their power to shadow-ban all critics. They have politicized science big time, threatening the future of the world. But too bad for them, physics trumps politics, and the truth will win in the end.
Too bad, there is vast ignorance about thermal physics, but I've been providing a free online course that covers all the basics and brings you up to speed to see through IPCC lies. Expect to spend thousands of hours to master it, but when you do you'll agree it was the most valuable time you ever spent.

My reply:
[[CO2 Saturation explained: The surface emits a limited number of photons (or units of radiation) of the sort that atmospheric CO2 absorbs. In effect the molecules are competing for the available photons. So as the number of CO2 molecules increases the absorption per molecule goes down. More and more molecules are looking to absorb the same number of radiation photons]]
The IPCC lie that never dies still lives in the so-called climate skeptic community.
For the umpteenth zillion time, streams of photons from Planck (black body) radiation have a temperature that is the hottest they can raise an absorbing material to. For CO2, its 15 micron radiation absorption/emission wavelength has a Planck radiation temperature of -80C, which isn't even heat, and has no effect on weather or climate because Earth surface temperatures are limited to the range of -50C to +50C, which is way outside CO2's window,meaning that alll that radiation just passes through it untouched.It's not absorbed, period, and doesn't block, trap, or reemit anything. Even the photons are laughing at you for swallowing this hoax or even taking it seriously.
CO2's wrong wavelength takes it out of the climate business, just like a man with ED is out of the sex business. The hoax is kept alive solely by the hardcore global Marxists at the U.N. IPCC octopus lie machine to scare suckers into bowing to their demands for trillions to save us from it. How many trillions do you want to pay to save humanity from -80C radiation? What sacrifices are you willing to make to fight dry ice radiation? Imagine an alien spaceship made of dry ice hovering over California and setting wildfires and open your checkbook fast:)
These "lukewarmer" fence-sitters like Happer are despicable because of the high stakes if the IPCC isn't shut down before it ruins the world. Get tough and just say no to the IPCC and its -80C if you want your children to enjoy the same freedoms and comfortable lifestyle you did.
It's sad that there is widespread ignorance about thermal physics, allowing any scam to flourish. I can educate you and make you immune from scams, if you will just take the time to seriously study and learn the real principles.

The so-called greenhouse gas global warming theory started out with fake physics and no matter how many times it's disproved it continues to be promoted by the IPCC as the only sales tool they have to foster the fear they need to make their outrageous demands to fix something that ain't broke. They really want to fix capitalism by massive redistribution of wealth for Marxist social-racial justice, and asking honestly won't work.

It's too bad the current brouhaha about CO2 is so narrowly focused. So what if a higher concentration in the atmosphere raises global average temps? If higher temps were accompanied by increased atmospheric moisture, it would even out around the world and turn it into a paradise planet, greening the deserts so that the teeming billions could be fed. Cold temperatures are inimical to life, not a goal of life.
Too bad, it might take a lot more CO2 than you think to really change the global weather, but not because it has any control over Earth's surface temperatures. In fact atmospheric CO2 can't melt an ice cube with its 15 micron main radiation wavelength that has a Planck radiation temperature of -80C, colder than dry ice (-78.5C).
Why do they call CO2 greenhouse gas? Because plants breathe it, and they pump it into greenhouses to help them grow and thrive. Polar regions and deserts look good in postcards, but who wants to live there. Meanwhile global pop. is zooming, so obviously the real answer is to pump more CO2 and water vapor into the atmosphere to turn the Earth into a greenhouse, turning deserts both hot and cold into lush green crop-growing regions like 35 million years ago when the avg. global temp was 88F and the CO2 level was 1K parts per million (vs. 415 PPM today). So what if we lose some desert polar regions and even some yummy coastline, the adjustments will be inconvenient but temporary, but I prefer shirt-sleeve weather to Frosty the Snowman. How many arctic animals can't adapt to a warmer climate? What animal needs to live in ice and snow and wouldn't like a vacation to Tahiti? They can lose the fat, hair or feathers.
The real question is can we make and keep the global CO2/H20 levels high enough, and for how long? Sooner or later mass global starvation will become unstoppable if world pop. keeps climbing, and this is the way to forestall it, if we act soon enough. Don't give me them Malthusian objections, give me some CO2/H20 solutions. I like a paradise Earth in the possibility window.
So, while the world is debating the horrors, extent or lack thereof of global warming caused by CO2, let's engineer the CO2/H20 solution to making the Earth a warm temperate planet from pole to pole with no deserts or ice wastelands, allowing vastly more food to be grown and turning poor nations rich. I DON'T mean a planet with wild swings between super-hot summers and super-cold winters, but one that is warmer than now everywhere, but moister and greener, with a giant network of plant life helping to avoid extremes. Since CO2 and water vapor are the keys, and the paltry amounts in the atmosphere need to be increased as soon as possible to turn deserts green and get the warming process off to a good start, but the new levels have to be maintained permanently, I'm looking to remote Antarctica (which is really a sea) as the most promising source for unlimited CO2 and water vapor generation, given that noxious emissions (sulfur dioxide, etc.) can be controlled.
This blog is for posting news on the world climate situation, scientific and political, along with my own articles. I'm sure it will start out with hardly any interest or followers, but I'm hoping that it will attract the smartest people eventually and in the end I hope for a global consensus that if it can be done it must be done.
So what is the Antarctic Volcanoes Project? My working idea is that an international effort to reactivate as many volcanoes in Antarctica as possible in an ideal location for distributing the CO2/H20 will produce the best and most cost-effective results. Sorry, one-worlders, it won't give you a license to override and control any country's economy, but if your country is suffering from lack of food you will be too busy expanding farming to care. Hence until I think of or hear about a better way to increase world CO2/H20 levels, this is my pet project. If you are a scientist, please climb aboard my AVP Express and let's make it happen.
It Would Be Funny If It Were's So Sad
It would be funny it weren't so sad, but when the scientists say "greenhouse gas" they are using a malaprop. It should be greenhouse GLASS, because that's why a greenhouse stays warm, by glass walls stopping convection of air and trapping heat. Yes, CO2 is pumped into greenhouses, but not for heating purposes, only to help plants BREATHE. So the whole sucker's game of "greenhouse gas" must truly be for the purpose of stopping more vegetation from growing and feeding the teeming billions. Is that their true goal? Another blip on the horizon is the promise of melting permafrost releasing gigantic amounts of CO2 from the Arctic not Antarctic sector. Let's hope we at least get some more good CO2 that way.
