ratie both you and eric and possibly current students at MIT are science illiterate if you think any matter that absorbs energy is trapping it.

At the same time, the atmosphere absorbs more and more incoming solar radiation
Now you see that energy is also not trapped, it never warms the Earth and radiates or reflects back into space. And any that reradiates toward Earth would be blocked by the denser greenhouse gasses. That is symetry another black hole in comprehension by the AGW religious zealots.

It is never trapped, only the time to it travel as photons in infinite space is delayed.

It is good of you and eric to confirm again you total ignorance of basic physics. But the amusing stupidity is that some fixate on some minuscule change of 1 part in 10,000 or CO2 while the far more potent green house gas H20 is varying in several parts in 100 by the minute, the hour, the day, the week ....

have a nice day ratie.
