The minor static radiative effect of incremental CO2, CH4, N2O, etc., is massively overwhelmed by dynamic energy conversion within the general circulation.

That is how skeptics of climate alarm can explain, from fundamental physical principles, why there is no risk of harmful influence on the climate system from past or future emissions of CO2 and other IR-active trace gases. The computed radiative effect itself need not be in dispute to make this point, as that claimed effect does not determine the end result in any case, because the atmosphere operates dynamically as the compressible working fluid of its own circulation.

This is straightforward, and the modelers know it. Let’s hope the EPA acts SOON to finalize the withdrawal of the 2009 Endangerment Finding.

One more thing: It doesn’t matter what others may call you.

Thank you for your patience in this important issue.

Not related to this comment, but last week you pointed me to a video by Paul Burgess. Many thanks for that. It is a useful resource to get credulous or fretful friends to think a little more sceptically about AI.

In return I offer this by Gerben Wierda:
