CO2 is a trace gas in single parts per 10 thousand. CO2 effects are thus in it's range of parts per 10 thousand. Any model that does not code the effect of CO2 proportional to it's trace amount are bogus models.

There are effects that change in from 0 to 100% and even greenhouse gases that change in parts per hundred.

Just because of Earth obit the solar radiation varies by 2 to three parts per hundred.

Engineering is about understanding how to throw out the meaningless, the rounding error.

liarboy neolib, you do not have the right stuff to do any engineering.
