Which bit of the Earth are you referring to? It's a thick sandwich of gas and solids (water too!) Go back to a greenhouse; which is... -
russ_watters replied to the thread B Why would an atmosphere without greenhouse gasses be colder than with them?.Of course. Yes. Yes, of course. Are these self-evident questions really what you want to know?

This was your question. But it is changing the amount of heat that transfers through that mechanism. To change the temperature (your...

With GHG in the atmosphere the surface of the earth is in radiative “contact” with a reservoir that is at the temperature of the...
