   If CO2 is such a powerful terrestrial GHG, why is Mars so cold when its atmosphere is 95% CO2? I know it gets less than half of the solar irradiance as Earth but it has had millions of years to warm. How can 0.04% of CO2 in Earth’s atmosphere result in more back radiative heating than 95% on Mars? Does Mars’ surface not reflect nor radiate IR radiation in any CO2 absorption band? Even though there are no clouds or terrestrial gases, and although CO2 absorption is logarithmic, I should think the temporal factor should have resulted in more significant warming than to -80 F if CO2 influence is as claimed.
   Just musing.

     I’ve always liked using the Mars/Venus example. When they say Mars is farther from the earth than Venus, I point out that it’s had millions of years to warm. They never have a comeback for that.

     Yeah, Venus has an atmosphere that is 95% CO2 and it’s hot enough on Venus to melt lead. Mars has an atmosphere that is 95% CO2 and it’s so cold on Mars that it snows dry ice. Earth has an atmosphere the 0.04% CO2 and we are told that CO2 is the control knob of climate.

       Steve, this small post of yours, which will get buried quickly enough, was abosolutely precious. How might one begin to knock a scientific illiterate out of their indoctrination stupor? Perhaps with a dash of simple logic, and a bit of humor – the ingredients of your post.

       Thank you.
