λmax= 2.8977729×103mK 193.0

=15014.367357513 nanometers

But when I do it on the calculator I end up with 150.14 and not unless I go 105 I get the right number.

eta: I'm asking\ because I'm going to show climate retards that co2 absorbs only low energy photons and I can't be fucking up the equation, Thanks

Yes, you are right. Everything will eventually go back into space.

BUT, the question here is HOW MUCH energy gets captured and HOW LONG energy remains in the system.

More CO2 means more energy gets captured and more energy stays in the system.

Now, I'm not going to claim the Earth is going to end in 12 years, but there IS something to CO2 being a greenhouse gas. Just think of a molecule of CO2 as a heat battery storing energy. 1 molecule isn't going to do much. But a lot will and the only question at that point is "how much?"

Co2 does not mean more energy gets captured. The amount of energy is dependent on the sun. Its all going to get absorbed by the ground or into the air but primarily the ground one way or another. I doubt it means the energy stays around longer either as any temperature increase means the earth is going to radiate even more black body radiation and dissipate even more energy into space faster which even the co2 in the atmosphere radiates based on its temperature. Its a steady state equation based on temperature. The earth doesn't dissipate heat based on convection or conduction most goes into systems like the water cycle and weather which end up dissipating heat into work and the rest is emitted via radiation.

Dude, I'm not interested in arguing with you. It's not like I'm a huge global warming guy.

I'm more of a "We just got out of an ice age and 65 million years ago it was hot as fuck" kind of guy.

But if you don't understand the whole idea of energy staying in a system = heat angle. Then OK. Go ahead. I'm not interested in arguing with you. But when you'd like to LEARN something. Please feel free to knock on my door.
