Years ago, I realized that the world is quite possibly not going to be able to avoid the dramatic natural consequence that the ‘amplified greenhouse effect’ is having on an already overpopulated planet. I, therefore, have gone to great lengths to explain how not all visible light is reflected away from Earth’s surface — that some is absorbed and then radiated away as ‘infrared light’ (heat). Whereas visible light passes freely thru the atmosphere, infrared interacts with and is absorbed by larger molecules, such as carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, water vapor, etcetera. It is humanity’s general inability to understand this that our overpopulation problem will be solved in such a way that we’ll be reminded that “it’s not nice to fool Mother Nature”!
