[MCN] Heat: a simple truth explains so very much

[Lance Olsen]

"The molecule of carbon dioxide has strong 
absorption bonds, particularly in the infrared 
region of the spectrum at wavelengths of from 12 
to 18 microns. This is the spectral region where 
most of the thermal energy radiating from earth 
to space is concentrated. By increasing the 
absorption of this radiation ... the carbon 
dioxide reduces the amount of heat energy lost by 
earth to outer space."

Singer, Fred S. "Human Energy Production as a 
process in the biosphere," Scientific American, 
September 1970.
