Enough of this stupidity, this is the AGWSF Greenhouse Effect energy budget, that «shortwave heats the Earth and no longwave infrared from the Sun plays any part in heating the Earth's land and water», either because it doesn't get through some unknown unexplained silly idea of an invisible barrier like the glass of a greenhouse, as per Arrhenius's getting Fourier wrong, or, as Pekka gives, that the Sun produces very little longwaveGreenhouse Effect energy budget, that «shortwave heats the Earth and no longwave infrared from the Sun plays any part in heating the Earth's land and water», either because it doesn't get through some unknown unexplained silly idea of an invisible barrier like the glass of a greenhouse, as per Arrhenius's getting Fourier wrong, or, as Pekka gives, that the Sun produces very little longwavegreenhouse, as per Arrhenius's getting Fourier wrong, or, as Pekka gives, that the Sun produces very little longwave infrared.

The AGW claim «The Sun produces very little heat and only a little of that reaches Earth» is a variation I first heard here in these discussions from someone supporting AGW fake fisics which claims in its basic form that there is «some invisible barrier like a greenhouse glass which stops direct heat from the Sun, thermal infrared, from entering the atmosphere», but obviously embarrassed that he can't produce any physical explanation, mechanism, for this stupid idea, now says that is a CAGW claim and the more sophisticated AGW claim says that «the Sun gives off very little longwave infrared and we only get a little bit of that».

So the first explanation for how this works, the original, is the now classic «greenhouse glass like barrier stopping longwave from the Sun from entering the atmosphere while visible travels through and is absorbed heating the Earth's surface which then radiates out thermal infrared, longwave.

The «second AGW» version appears to be emphasising that «the Sun produces very little longwave infrared» because the «invisible greenhouse glass like barrier» has been attributed by some to being the same «greenhouse gases which trap / backradiate upwelling heat from the Earth», so perhaps this second version is to deflect from the objection that if these gases trap the upwelling heat they must also be trapping the downwelling direct, beam, heat from the Sun, and that contribution is not accounted for in downwelling measurements.

The first is the original «invisible something barrier» at the top of the atmosphere, TOA, like the glass of a greenhouse, preventing the longwave infrared from the Sun from entering, but allowing the mainly visible light to reach the surface and directly heat it and the second is that the Sun produces insignificant amounts of longwave infrared and none of this gets through TOA.

The AGW claim from the comic cartoon KT97 and kin The Greenhouse Effect says that Shortwave, (near UV, visible and near infrared, but mostly visible) heats up land and oceans, that no longwave infrared from the Sun gets through the invisible undefined and unexplained barrier said to be like the glass of a greenhouse, and then the Shortwave heated land and oceans radiate out longwave infrared, (which in real physics is heat, also called thermal Greenhouse Effect says that Shortwave, (near UV, visible and near infrared, but mostly visible) heats up land and oceans, that no longwave infrared from the Sun gets through the invisible undefined and unexplained barrier said to be like the glass of a greenhouse, and then the Shortwave heated land and oceans radiate out longwave infrared, (which in real physics is heat, also called thermal greenhouse, and then the Shortwave heated land and oceans radiate out longwave infrared, (which in real physics is heat, also called thermal infrared).
