It has been changing and will continue to change. I do wonder though,
with all the carbon based fuel we've been burning the past 100+ years if
it had some effect. Some of the heat is lost to space, but how much?
As we pave roads and parking lots, do we get solar gain from the black
asphalt?


The carbon based fuel we are burning was taken from the air by plants
and animals millennia ago, we are simply returning it.


Sure but it generates heat doing so. Did the sequestering cause the ice
age? Seeking equilibrium? For every action . . .


Heat is irrelevant. Even the greenies blame the CO2, not the heat. Heat just escapes into space. The sun makes billions time more heat than we do.
