You numbers are at least an order of magnitude off. Though the end result is the same - there is no more energy in the CO2 bands for increasing CO2 to effect.

But O2 does NOT absorb all of the UV which is why you have to wear suntan lotion and wear UV resistant sunglasses.

Meh. It's only 2% of incoming UV. Not that much.
