Only after sifting through mounds of misinformation, misinterpretations, and misunderstandings, can one identify what is true. However, thanks to Climate Debrief, the truth has never been easier to find. Through in-depth analyses and indisputable facts - provided by some of the best minds in the world - our program is intended to break through the noise and tell the truth about climate change, CO2, energy, and so much more.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-10T22:17:03.161613+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-debrief-7743994"},"episode":{"title":"Episode 12: The Physics of CO2 Explained with Rob Louw | Climate Debrief","slug":"episode-12-the-physics-of-co2-explained-with-rob-louw-climate-debrief","published_at":"2026-04-08T16:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-debrief-7743994/episode-12-the-physics-of-co2-explained-with-rob-louw-climate-debrief","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-debrief-7743994","url":"https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/co2cclimatedebriefpodcast/episodes/2026-04-08T09_00_00-07_00","audio_url":"https://co2cclimatedebriefpodcast.podomatic.com/enclosure/2026-04-08T09_00_00-07_00.mp3?_=1775664046.17705318","summary":"In this episode of Climate Debrief, Rob Louw joins Angela Wheeler and offers a detailed look at the greenhouse effect and the role of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere. He explains how radiative transfer works, why additional CO2 produces diminishing warming, and how temperature profiles in the troposphere and stratosphere influence heat loss to space. Louw also discusses feedback mechanisms, the concept of saturation, and the importance of maintaining a balanced perspective when interpreting climate models. By grounding the conversation in physics and engineering principles, he presents a methodical critique of prevailing climate narratives and emphasizes the value of scientific debate.
