CO2 absorbs a lot of infrared radiation emitted from the Earth, basically slowing the rate that Earth radiates heat into space, but without slowing the rate that Earth receives heat from the sun (more UV than infrared) - that's why it causes heating. CO2 and average temperature have always been drivers for each other, but the problem this time is how sharply its happening, doing like 30000 years worth of increase in only 200. <cite>Woodger posted [p:959615934] in Does anyon...
