Is the greenhouse effect of carbon dioxide saturated? Is CO2 already absorbing all the infrared (heat) energy that it can? Does this mean CO2 can’t cause global warming or climate change? This argument was first proposed by Knut Ångström over a century ago and it continues to be used by science deniers and so called climate ‘skeptics’ today. In this video we investigate the history and science behind it, explain why it is wrong and debunk William Happer in the process. Watch on to find out more!
