“Net Zero” is pointless. There is no CO2 “greenhouse effect.” Basic physics proves that.
CO2 absorbs outgoing longwave infrared radiation (heat) as photons at the 14.8 microns frequency (Planck’s Law).
The temperature of absorption at 14.8 microns is -80 degrees Celsius (Wien’s Displacement Law).
Minus 80 degrees Celsius is 95 degrees lower than average atmospheric temperature and the Second Law of Thermodynamics says heat doesn’t flow from cold zones to hotter zones.
CO2 cannot “trap heat.” It merely delays outgoing infrared photons momentarily so high in the atmosphere it’s irrelevant.
Atmospheric CO2 is contingent upon seawater temperature (Henry’s Law). Only the sun has the energy to heat 1.335 billion cubic kilometres of water.
To control Earth’s climate you must control the sun.
