too fucking stupid to realize that water vapor is far more prevalent.

I know that water vapour is the stronger greenhouse gas than CO2. But its not water vapour increasing in the earth's atmosphere at an unprecedented rate, its CO2. CO2 is the trigger that, if left unchecked, will start a disastrous feedback cycle that more CO2 leads to more warming that leads to

  • less ice to reflect sunlight back into space (more warming)
  • more evaporation and water vapour (more warming)
  • methane released from permafrost (more warming).

CO2 is not the only or even the strongest greenhouse gas, but it is the key to keeping it under control.
