In the upper atmosphere....the heat from the earth exchanges the heat through this atmosphere into the vastness of outer space...and is gone. Heat is energy after all.
And the heat we can bleed off is at a steady rate not limitless. But have we reached a critical level yet? No.
Are we heading for a critical level?
Possibly.
CO² levels are well inside of tolerances. Too high and we choke to death and all plant life dies....so as far as levels high enough to cause a greenhouse effect? We would be dead long before we get there.
So....
From the models we have seen....actually it's liberal Democrats causing the problems. It's not the farms and rural communities....it's the big cities that are full of high rise apartment buildings that hold heat. The cities hold an extra 5-10° at night (Not really disputed information) while the rural areas cool off immediately. Trying to create green space inside the cities doesn't help whatsoever. In fact green energies to this point have been anything but green.
Peak oil is still 50+ years away from any draconian measure. However, it was brought up that we should do every thing possible to control pollution by bringing businesses here to the USA where we have jurisdiction and can control.
