The way I explained it is precisely how GHG in the atmosphere and glass in a greenhouse are suppose to work. The energy coming in is in a different spectrum than the energy trying to leave, and the atmosphere (in the case of the earth) and the glass (in the case of the greenhouse) have different transmission characteristics for those two spectrums (incoming and outgoing). That is how the whole thing works. I don't expect you to understand any of this. As a test of your ability to look at things accurately, I'd like to once again ask what the units of Work are? If you can answer that one correctly, I'll continue to dialog with you. Otherwise I'm going to take that as a metric of your abilities on all technical discussion, in which case there is zero point in me discussing anything with you.
