All the radiative forcing is speculation that is an attempt to build some magic property of CO2. All measured experience has found no magic property of CO2. In addition it seems that the foundation in physics for magic properties of CO2 is built upon the incorrect application of the 2nd law of thermodynamics.
And I suspect this also will not connect the dots for you.
It is in definition of Heat and energy and work that are how the 2nd law is defined.
A good explanation is here.
# Heat is the name of energy when it is moved from one area to another. [Allen L. King, Thermophysics (San Francisco: W.H. Freeman & Company, 1962), p. 5.]
# Heat is transferred by virtue of a temperature difference. Work is energy transferred by virtue of a force.

Hot to cold is Heat, Cold to hot is work.

Energy dispersal
The second law of thermodynamics is an axiom of thermodynamics concerning heat, entropy, and the direction in which thermodynamic processes can occur. For example, the second law implies that heat does not spontaneously flow from a cold material to a hot material, but it allows heat to flow from a hot material to a cold material. Roughly speaking, the second law says that in an isolated system, concentrated energy disperses over time, and consequently less concentrated energy is available to do useful work. Energy dispersal also means that differences in temperature, pressure, and density even out. Again roughly speaking, thermodynamic entropy is a measure of energy dispersal, and so the second law is closely connected with the concept of entropy.
