Previously I had written in this newsgroup and elsewhere, several
times, that the amount of energy being retained by Earth due to
our release of CO2 into the atmosphere is equal to about 2,880
Hiroshima Atom Bombs ("Big Boy") per day.

I was horrible wrong, for which I apologize. That number is no
where near the actual value.

How do you know that? Have you no faith in Hansen?
"...equivalent to exploding 400,000 Hiroshima atomic bombs per day 365
days per year. That’s how much extra energy Earth is gaining each
day."
