Nice simplistic analysis, but the effect of climate on water vapor and vice versa is amazingly complex. Simplistic analsysis just doesn't cut it.

Of course, the levels are in ppm.....so what?

So CO2 is not very significant. Earth's atmosphere, not counting water vapor, is 78% nitrogen. Add oxygen to the nitrogen and you're at 99%. Next comes argon - 0.96%. OK, we're up to 99.96% now. The rest is everything else, including carbon.

Did you know that the difference in the earths temperature between the ice age and now is about 6 degrees????

I'll take your word for the number. Did you know that times as warm as we enjoy now have been very rare over the last couple million years? Over the long haul, warming will not be the climate danger we face.

Science was not one of your favorites subjects in school, was it??

I did pretty well in both science and math. I should be asking you that question.
