It’s not a hard concept to understand when it’s explained properly. Thus, I find it perplexing that scientists and educational organizations have done such a limited job of describing and demonstrating the greenhouse effect via high quality short videos that can be disseminated and shared on line. They do a wonderful job with lectures and scientific papers explaining the interface of Newtonian physics and Quantum physics in explaining how energy is transformed and transferred in the atmosphere, but this neglects the needs of the average citizen who has the right to be shown the scientific proof demonstrating that CO2 is a greenhouse gas. We need simple concrete demonstrations like 8th grade Earth Science teachers use in their classrooms, such as this one:
Demonstration Videos:

Note: The climate change denier groups are, however, creating a prodigious volume of pseudoscientific videos, and their followers are very eager to share them.
