We've been seeing a lot of posts and questions from people that don't seem to understand the difference between percentages and quantity. They seem to think that because Mars has a high % of CO2 in it's atmosphere it should be hot, if greenhouse gas theory of warming were real.
I'm looking for a concise, easily understandable (for the math impaired around here) explanation of why Mars atmosphere is high in CO2 yet Mars isn't hot. I know there are many detailed explanations and analysis of Mars atmosphere, but I think a 3 - 4 sentence paragraph might be better to help these individuals understand. 10 points to the best explanation.
