But we know from physics that it's a greenhouse gas.
If by "greenhouse" you mean, well, "not a greenhouse". Greenhouses get warm because the shell blocks convection, not radiative effects.
We really need a better term for them. Heat trapping gas?
- Locke1689 17y agoEh. And it's not protons that comprise moving current in a circuit. Conventions happen and sometimes we're stuck with them.
- bdonlan 17y agoActually, sometimes protons _do_ carry the current in a circuit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_conductor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_conductor
- Locke1689 17y agoTrue, but you understand my point (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_current#Conventions http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_current#Conventions).
- Daniel_Newby 17y agoPolarity conventions are arbitrary. "Greenhouse gas" is an analogy, one that is deliberately deceptive in order to provoke a maladaptive political response.
