You’re right, I misspoke. What I should have said was the greenhouse effect of CO2 relative to that of air.

Here is some work done by Dr. Thomas Allmendinger and Dr. Andreas Rüetschi:

“A Novel Investigation about the Thermal Behaviour of Gases under the Influence of IR-Radiation: A Further Argument against the Greenhouse Thesis”

The limiting temperature depends on the gas kind, whereby practically no difference between air and carbon-dioxide could be found. However, a significant difference could be found between the noble gases argon and helium...



It’s interesting work, and I can’t do it justice with a short summary. Ultimately what they found in their study, though, was that the difference in greenhouse effect between pure carbon dioxide and air was negligible.

Edit: a bit more in-depth version of the study in the International Journal of Physical Sciences (https://www.allphyscon.ch/wordpress/...Gases_IJPS.pdf)
