The absolute worst greenhouse gas on the planet is not CO2 nor is it methane.

It is (wait for it)......... water vapor.

There's certainly more water vapor than CO2, but perhaps CO2 has a bigger greenhouse effect per molecule. Do you know their relative strengths as greenhouse gases? Me either, but at least I'll try to look it up.

I'm sure you'll be able to convince yourself that antropogenic global warming is true, regardless of the facts.

"Do you know their relative strengths as greenhouse gases?"

General ranges are available on websites as difficult to find as wikipedia.org.

"Me either,..."

You do realize that you speak only for yourself. Or do you just automatically assume that everyone is as uninformed as you are?

"...but at least I'll try to look it up."

Try? Sheesh. Don't strain yourself.
