But CO2 is also very good at radiating so acts as a cooling agent away from a heat source.

It looks like if we don't curb rising CO2 levels we will be an ice age by 2020.

I hope the oceans don't warm too much, or plants grow less (due to increased cloudiness), etc, etc.

CO2 is a strong cooling agent, it is certainly appears so in Minnesota..
Enjoy.

Richard111 it has just occurred to me that we may have hit upon something.
CO2 is a cooling agent, warming oceans degass CO2.
So, as oceans warm and release more heat to the atmosphere, they also release more cooling agent.
When oceans cool they remove some of the cooling agent proportionally.

Does this sound like a natural, self regulating balance. ?
A balance / mechanism that AGW will not "see" because of it's greenhouse effect "theory" viewpoint.
It does not seem to occurr to AGW / G/house believers that Alan Siddons AGW oven also applies to the oceans,
so by their logic the oceans would of boiled away a long, long time ago.

(Joke aimed at AGW / G/house believers) Maybe that is why none of the other planets we can observe have oceans on them,
they all boiled away, because of the AGW oven.......
