Sounds like you have never heard about infrared heat transfer. It is the only mechanism that cools the earth; unfortunately IR radiation is trapped in the air because of the high concentration of the gases like CO2 produced by men, and by methane that is released from permafrost because of the global warming itself.

>>>BTW the amount of heat being released from the Earth's Nuclear Core and combined with the radiant energy received from the Sun, makes man's output fade into insignificance.

>>The issue is not about heat produced by man - which is indeed insignificant - but about gases, especially CO2, which are said to "trap" the heat from the sun.
