Hi,

See Message#1133508

>>The effect that is usually discussed is the so-called greenhouse effect. As I understand it, this is not directly related to the principles of thermodynamics, and especially to the properties you mention.

>For a start, you may want to read the Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_effect. This includes both explanations about the pressumed global climate change, and links to articles about the controversy surrounding the role of humans.

>What I find quite interesting (new, to me) is the explanation about "greenhouse effect" being a misnomer.
