It is possible you do not have the intellectual tools or desire to know the real truth.

I suppose you have already read this rebuttal to Gerlich's and Tscheuschner's paper before you cam up with that comment.

Yes?

V. CONCLUSION
Gerlich and Tscheuschner1 state, among more extravagant claims, that “Unfortunately, there is no source in the literature, where the greenhouse effect is introduced in harmony with the scientific standards of theoretical physics.”
The above analysis I believe completely establishes, within perfectly simple and appropriate theoretical physics constructs, the main points. Namely that assuming “the atmosphere is transparent for visible light but opaque for infrared radiation” leads to “a warming of the Earth’s surface” relative to firm limits established by basic physical principles of energy conservation, for the case of an atmosphere transparent to both visible and infrared.


Loads more can be found here..

It also has got some neat math in it. I checked it over as best I can, didn't see anywhere were the author has dropped a stitch, sneaked away or a lost radiation coefficient. etc .

Do you??
