It’s not the CO2. It’s the fact that we HEAT the air.
Every combustion engine, every jet engine, every heating/cooling system on every house and building produce HEAT. Cities are known ‘heat islands’. WE DO ARTIFICIALLY HEAT our local environment.
However, it takes time and much energy to produce that heat.
We might raise the ambient temp. of a city by a few degrees over 24 hours. A cloud can drop the ambient temp. by 10-20 degrees in seconds.
I would compare what we do (anthropomorphic warming) to the entire ‘globe’ as what our computers do to our homes. Sure, they kick out extra heat and raise the temp. right around the computer. But you can’t heat your house with it, and if you open a door to the outside (assuming it is fairly cool out), it won’t mitigate the loss of heat.
What these Global Change alarmists should be doing is Thanking God for giving us humans the intelligence to build things that produce heat. Can you imagine how cold everywhere would be if we didn’t use things that generated extra heat ?
[[WE DO ARTIFICIALLY HEAT our local environment.]]
we do not heat the globe- and these ‘heat islands’ are very very very small in comparison to the total amount of globe- it is not causing global warming- and it is the sun which heats these ‘islands’ not out engines- the only reason these ‘islands’ get hotter is because they are cleared of greenery and replaced with asphalt- but again- these areas are insignificantly small
[[It’s not the CO2. It’s the fact that we HEAT the air.]]
That is not what climate alarmists claim- they claim it IS the CO2- causing ‘cloud banks’ that ‘trap the escaping heat’ (Heat rises)- but just like the scenario above- these ‘cloud banks’ are very very very small compared to the entire atmosphere-, and heat has the vast majority of atmosphere to escape through- only getting trapped in very tiny areas- and most of this trapped heat gets radiated towards outer space- not back towards the earth- only a tiny percent gets radiated towards earth-
It is ridiculous for climate alarmists to claim that this small amount of trapped heat can be causing climate change- they should be ashamed of themselves for suggesting it-

I wouldn’t even give it that much credit- CO2 comprises only 0.00136% of our atmosphere- and even if you throw in our machines ‘causing heat’ it is still so small that it has almost zero effect globally- There are so few major cities i n the world that it can’t possibly be causing global climate change- Can it cause very minor, limited local change? Yes- global climate change? Nope-
