The article says that those molecules serve to reflect heat in the upper atmosphere back into space - they form a layer between the upper and lower atmosphere, and reflect heat in both directions. So if these molecules are preventing excess heat in the upper atmosphere from entering the lower atmosphere, what do you think it's doing to excess heat in the lower atmosphere? Even an elementary grasp of science would be enough to be able to comprehend this. Sadly, people who run around going "Global Warming Debunked!" typically don't have even a partial grasp on science. |
I absolutely agree. The actual NASA link provided in the article doesn't say anything about debunking global warming. It just says Co2 helps reflect heat. It is the interpretation of the author that bothered me and i put this up to see what everyone else thought.
