Do you really think that changes anything? OR made a claim. It was wrong. I pointed out his error. He got all bitchy.You're the shit-hot science guy, right?Water vapor is a feedback. Since you know or read nothing but talking points, why should anyone listen to you.
Is it too much to ask that you get the science right?
Looks like it is.
Water vapor accounts for the largest percentage of the greenhouse effect, between 36% and 66% for clear sky conditions and between 66% and 85% when including clouds.[13]
How come you morons aren't screeching about water vapor restrictions? Oh, yeah -- because you don't actually give a shit about the environment.
Feed back because water vapor only stays within the air for a short time period, but yes it makes up a very large percentage of the green house gas, but not uniform over all the surface. Co2 can last for a decade within the Atmosphere and plug up the carbon cycle, which makes it pretty much a gas that can remain the same amounts or constantrations for over a hundred years.
Just imagine a sink that got a bunch of crap plugging it up. So it only can drain that back into the system very slowly, but we keep adding more and more onto of the natural cycle, which the system only has the ability to handle the drainage for the natural co2. That is why it compounds and keeps growing and why for hundreds of years to come it will remain very high indeed.
Deserts have very little water vapor, but rain forest can make up to 4 percent of the air mass.
