Physical chemistry is a combination of chemistry and physics, it is fine that you derived the equation, but it relates to thermodynamics just the same; chemists make those lasers work, those DVD's play, and I have taken calculus physics, modern physics, (multi variable calculus physics) which means technically I too have a degree in physics, but my focus has been chemistry, biology, and I took a few graduate courses dealing with meteorology, ocean dynamics, geology,
atmospheric science and my undergraduate courses were filled with earth
science related material and after all the math needed for Pchem engineering mathematics is
not difficult nor is graduate physics:) so the derivation you just made is discussed in math classes before, even calculus one, so I am
not sure what you are trying to prove.

John Carter August 8, 2014 at 12:58 am chooses to state his position on the greenhouse effect in the following 134 word sentence: «But given the [1] basics of the greenhouse effect, the fact that with just a very small percentage of greenhouse gas molecules in the air this effect keeps the earth about 55 - 60 degrees warmer than it would otherwise be, and the fact that through easily recognizable if [2] inadvertent growing patterns we have at this point probably at least [3] doubled the total collective amount in heat absorption and re-radiation capacity of long lived
atmospheric greenhouse gases (nearly doubling total that of the [4] leading one, carbon dioxide, in the modern era), to [5] levels
not collectively seen on earth in several million years — levels that well predated the present ice age and extensive earth surface ice conditions — it goes [6] against basic physics and basic geologic
science to
not be «predisposed» to the idea that this would ultimately impact climate.»

The statement that only 55 % of human CO2 emissions have been removed by the biosphere / biosphere is something you'll have to prove, which is hard because as far as I'm aware human CO2 does

atmospheric mass,
not individual CO2 molecules, which can be misleading.
