C – Narrative Developments:
- Water vapour dominates the control of Earth’s Energy Balance in space, with CO2 a tiny effect, a small state variable within the bigger picture of the whole earth energy balance, easily controlled by the larger feedbacks, the real controls:
https://deconfused.com/how-water-vapour-dominates-energy-transfer-between-earth-and-space/ - The CO2 absorption band is already saturated at 400+ ppm. Rising CO2 levels thus cannot drive significant global warming. Doubling CO2 (280→560 ppm) increases absorption by just 1.1%. A 400→800 ppm increase results in 0.5°C warming at most:
