The argument at the link you posted claims the “greenhouse effect” is caused by the transport of heat by water vapor into the atmosphere. It was always my understanding that the greenhouse effect was that short wavelength IR radiation passed through the atmosphere and heated the surface. The heated surface reradiated at longer wavelengths that were absorbed by CO2 and H2O molecules in the atmosphere, rather than the radiation going back into space. This caused the Earth to thus be warmed by the net trapping of energy by “greenhouse” gases.
