"I am too exhausted to produce a video factchecking Lucy's BS. so here is this fact check: "CO is not a pollutant" Let's start with the science Lucy has no background in: The sun heats the Earth's surface with shortwave radiation. The Earth then radiates that energy back toward space as longwave infrared radiation. CO molecules absorb that outgoing infrared energy specifically at the 15-micrometer wavelength band and re-emit it in all directions including back toward the surface. This traps heat that would otherwise escape to space. More CO means more energy trapped. More energy trapped means"

"This post contains a fundamental logical error that either reflects a genuine misunderstanding of economics or is deliberately misleading. Let's walk through it. The counterfactual fallacy.

"Let me stop you right there. You're about to argue that atmospheric absorption somehow invalidates this but it's literally the opposite. The equation accounts for the atmosphere through the F term and the effective radiating temperature. On the Moon: no atmosphere surface radiates directly to space. On Earth: greenhouse gases absorb outgoing IR re-emit in all directions raise the effective radiating altitude. This isn't an 'assumption' it's measured physics. We observe the atmospheric absorption spectrum. We measure outgoing longwave radiation from satellites. The equation works because we"

"You just described the greenhouse effect while trying to disprove it. Yes the effective radiating temperature (255K) occurs at altitude (5-6km) not the surface. That's BECAUSE greenhouse gases absorb surface radiation and re-emit at altitude. The surface must be warmer than 255K to drive enough heat flux upward. The adiabatic lapse rate (T/z [----] K/km) is SET BY atmospheric composition. More CO higher radiating altitude warmer surface to maintain the same outgoing radiation. You've literally just explained why adding greenhouse gases warms the surface. This isn't a gotcha. This is"

"You're ALMOST there but missing the key point. Yes radiation to space occurs from altitude where greenhouse gases are sparse enough that photons escape (effective radiating level 5-6km 255K). But here's what you're missing: MORE CO higher effective radiating altitude colder radiating temperature surface must warm MORE to drive enough upward heat flux. It's not about "making a difference up there" it's about what surface temperature is REQUIRED to push enough energy through the atmospheric column to radiate [---] W/m to space.
