Does depletion of Planck radiation intensity in the upper atmosphere mean that "CO2 has no impact on climate change"?
Talk of Schwarzschild radiation integrations negating the effect of CO2 in atmospheric warming is just mumbo jumbo on a par with creationism, but there is a danger of going too far in the other direction. Carbon dioxide forms 0.0325 percent of the atmosphere, and although a slight increase has been recorded in the past 100 years and attributed to human activity, this increase is infinitesimally small. Whenever I say that climate warming began 12,000 years ago it is always very unpopular, but it nevertheless happens to be a fact. There is unanimous agreement among scientists that the small amount of CO2 in the atmosphere helps to warm the Earth, but where there is less agreement is on the question of whether the minute increase since the industrial revolution has measurably accelerated the climate warming which had already been underway for 12,000 years. Another unpopular idea which also happens to be a fact is that increased atmospheric CO2 causes plants to grow more vigorously, so to some extent increased CO2 content is self-correcting, but only up to a point. It could easily be overwhelmed if the CO2 increase is too rapid.
