We constructed the following material to help you in your efforts to bring a rational discussion to the study of climate. There is a need for more people to critically analyze climate policy and news, much of which is misinformation. We hope this document helps you tell fact from fiction.
We searched the Internet and found that we are the only researchers, at present, applying the psychrometric model to the role of CO2 in the atmosphere. This is surprising considering the importance of the model based on the Ideal Gas Laws. All gases in the atmosphere act as ideal gases if they are above their boiling point. Thus, we added Appendix 1 about the psychrometric model of moist air to this document.
Water vapor is the essential greenhouse gas that keeps the Earth at a temperature suitable for life to flourish.
The current message promoted by some politicians, scientists, and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) management that increasing CO2 in the atmosphere is dangerous has no scientific basis. The reality is that CO2 is the "gas of life"; plants use it to provide all our food and oxygen. CO2 is not a pollutant.
