The Greenhouse Effect is an impossible world with its Sun a cold Star of 6000 °C, around the temp of Earth's innards, but they have a good reason for this science fraud — to eliminate the direct radiant heat from our real millions of degrees hot real Star our Sun, so they can then pretend all real world measurements downwelling are from «the atmosphere backradiating by greenhouse gases», and not froGreenhouse Effect is an impossible world with its Sun a cold Star of 6000 °C, around the temp of Earth's innards, but they have a good reason for this science fraud — to eliminate the direct radiant heat from our real millions of degrees hot real Star our Sun, so they can then pretend all real world measurements downwelling are from «the atmosphere backradiating by greenhouse gases», and not frogreenhouse gases», and not from the Sun.
