Looked up a Columbia Climate School quote....."It is mainly DIFFUSION that allows CO2 to integrate at altitudes higher than its molecular weight ALONE would suggest - also UPDRAFT processes." My take........The earth gets warmer and there is MORE undrafted CO2 which is acting LIKE a blanket (layman's phrase) so MORE HEAT for the earth in a cycle that may reach or HAS reached a TIPPING POINT.
