The rest of your message seems to still be ignoring the fact that there is much more UV and visible radiation coming in from the Sun during the day than there is IR.


that's because there is clearly more IR light coming in from the sun than there is UV and Visible light !!!

Solar spectral distribution entering the lower parts of the atmosphere.



UVC 100-280 nm N/A
UVB 280-315 nm N/A
UVA 315-400 nm

the above graph correctly shows that the UVC and the UVB light
never enters the lower atmosphere and therefore never
reaches the surface , notice the line in the graph begins
at 315 nm.

I cant seem to understand how or why you seem to think that there is more incoming UV and Visible light than there is IR light.

just looking at the graph shows there is more IR than
UV and Visible combined.





so its not that ---> I <--- am ignoring any fact now is it?

So the reduction of energy that doesn't reach the ground due to IR absorption is a very small fraction of the total energy that does reach the ground in the other wavelengths.


we shouldn't just claim things to be a certain way
because we want things to appear to be the way we want things to be.

we must use the reality information that we have vs imagining information to fit into an agenda.




3/4 inch of dust build up on the moon in 4.527 billion years,LOL and QM is fantasy science.
