And, don't understand your point. That doesn't mean there is any energy moving from CO2 to the surface, it is merely that energy can transfer. You have to have energy. Again, you can't supply us with any material that proves CO2. I quoted the reference once already. So post up what doesn't exist.Here is another authors summary of Greenhouse Effect based on a Paper by the paper by Gerlich and Tscheuschner
Explaining Why The Greenhouse Effect Doesn’t Exist
Explaining Why The Greenhouse Effect Doesn’t Exist
by Jonathan Gardner
The link to the paper is also in Gardner summary. notice the word perpetual that he uses, I came to the same conclusion as he did if there were indeed a greenhouse effect. hmmmmmm.
"The summary is basically that the Greenhouse Effect, if it existed, would imply a violation of the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics or that there is a heat pump forcing heat to transfer from the atmosphere to the earth. In plainer words, the Greenhouse Effect is a perpetual machine. No one seems to notice this because all the scientific literature the authors have reviewed simply assume that the Effect exists. This was quite a chore, because there doesn’t even seem to be much agreement on what, precisely, the Greenhouse Effect is."
You sure you want to use the guy as a source?
Regardless, we all know that while energy may transfer from a cold body to a warmer one, HEAT cannot, unless some external work is put into the system somehow.
“Greenhouse Effect” is Real, According to Blog
I hate when that happens.
That doesn't mean there is any energy moving from CO2 to the surface,
SB says there is.
energy may transfer from a cold body to a warmer one
Even Gardner admits it.
it is merely that energy can transfer. You have to have energy.
The atmosphere has energy, energy emitted from the ground and absorbed by the atmosphere.
