My pleasure, DS.
I also agree with you, the Earth needs greenhouse gases to remain livable. Without them, the Earth would be much cooler. They are a good thing with the right balance. The Earth's Carbon Cycle has kept the C02 concentration in the atmosphere under 300ppm for the last 800,000 years. But something, in the last couple hundred years or so, has been causing atmospheric concentrations of CO2 to spike. Some change has apparently overwhelmed the Earth's ability to regulate atmospheric CO2 at historical levels.

Yes deserts are hot, and it has to do with lack of water. And they are getting hotter than they have ever been. But places with plenty of water are also breaking temperature records. The surface ocean temperature off Florida exceeded 101 degrees recently. There is plenty of water there.
btw, a greenhouse doesn't stop plants from drying out. You still have to water the plants in a greenhouse. A greenhouse's design helps keep the plants inside warm (due to the greenhouse effect), so you can grow plants in cold weather.
You may be right about the need to increase aerosols in the atmosphere to block a portion of the sunlight from reaching the Earth's surface. If we ever have to go that route, I hope they choose something less harmful than smog.
The thing is, without that graph and all of the news, would you be able to tell there was any difference going on in the atmosphere? I don't think many people would bat an eye if they didn't have it shown in their face all of time as something to fear. That being said, I still don't think green house gasses are what is heating the earth. Inside a greenhouse, it's much smaller and doesn't have near as my variables as the earth. The earth is freaking huge. It's not C02 and mouth breathers making the world hotter. Those compounds rise, break down, and mix with water and other compounds in a cycle and repeat. A greenhouse does not have an atmosphere for these greenhouses to rise. it traps them before they can break down, thus trapping the energy of the compounds trying to escape from the heat not able to escape so easily, it doesn't get hotter in there if you added a C02 hose to it. Remember the sun heats it, and the heat energy doesn't escape very easily either thus keeping it hotter.
Here's another graph I just came across by a scientist. Along with back ground information. Who really knows... but I've also seen this theory that we have far less C02 and Oxygen than ever before for millions of years, I've even heard thay Oxygen levels are very low. But... who even knows. As I say before. When the loaded rich in Miami start selling their homes, then I'll know there is a real problem. Until then, I'd just assume to enjoy life and try to aquire one of those Beach houses. It's just going to be a lot harder to enjoy life if these rejects take away things that make my life better like money, cars, gas engines, planes, AC, heaters, grills, stoves, meat, and who knows what else they will come up with next. because they think it's going to solve some global issue that they have no clue actually will. That's when I and other start to have a problem.
John graduated from Penn State University in 1972 with a Bachelors in Meteorology. While at Penn State he also enrolled in the Air Force ROTC program and obtained a commission as a 2nd Lieutenant. After 22 years in the Air Force, John retired as an Advanced Weather Officer and attained the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.
While in the Air Force, John obtained his Masters in Meteorology from the Naval Post-Graduate School at Monterey, California. There he specialized in Hurricane and Typhoon modeling. Upon graduating, he was assigned to the Joint Typhoon Warning Center at Guam. During his 3-year Guam assignment he issued more than 500 storm warnings for 100 tropical cyclones -- including the world's largest known tropical cyclone -- Typhoon Tip. For recognition of his forecasting and research achievements, he was awarded the Air Force 1979 Forecaster of the Year Award.
After retiring from the Air Force he became a Certified Consulting Meteorologist (CCM) and was board certified by the American Meteorological Society. He also works on a variety of meteorological and climate projects by designing computer programs and videos.
