Assuming the first 10 ppm CO2 absorbed 98% or 99% of whatever IR CO2 absorbs, increasing CO2 concentration beyond the first 10 ppm makes no difference to temperature. The ozone layer, our Earth's sunscreen, absorbs about 98 percent of this devastating UV light. https://www.nationalgeographic.org/encyclopedia/ozone-layer/ The total mass of ozone in the atmosphere is about 3 billion metric tons. That may seem like a lot, but it is only 0.00006 percent of the atmosphere. The peak concentration of ozone occurs at an altitude of roughly 32 kilometers (20 miles) above the surface of the Earth. At that altitude, ozone concentration can be as high as 15 parts per million (0.0015 percent). https://ozonewatch.gsfc.nasa.gov/facts/SH.html |

Why does no one consider how CO2 effects atmospheric temperatures? If the average global temperature is 58.5° F. which is about 287.9 Kelvin, why does CO2 have so much influence so far above 0 Kelvin and yet so little influence if the temperature drops 20 kelvins? That simply means that about 200 ppm is responsible for the first 268 Kelvin. I'd like to think there wouldn't be such a severe discrepancy in the amount of warming that 200 ppm is responsible for. This is almost funny. |

Oh wait, science already says that CO2 doesn't. I guess that answers your question. James___ wrote: If the average global temperature is 58.5° F. which is about 287.9 Kelvin, I suppose that if you are going to take a wild guess at the earth's average global temperature, you might want to guess a bit cooler, but 58.5° F is fine for a hypothetical. James___ wrote: why does CO2 have so much influence so far above 0 Kelvin and yet so little influence if the temperature drops 20 kelvins? Do you have any CO2-influence science? Why don't you start with that and let the science tell you exactly what influence CO2 has at any arbitrarily selected temperature? James___ wrote: That simply means that about 200 ppm is responsible for the first 268 Kelvin. Responsible? CO2? Not the sun? Hmmm. I hope you realize that despite the moon having no CO2, the sun still manages to cook the crap out of it. I don't think i can [define it].
