Hello. I am a retired ex military meteorologist. During my lifetime. Recording met Data. I have seen the content of water in the air Increase.
Water density changes all the time depending on the temperature. However. The increase is as important as other things. Carbon had increasedas we all know. Due to fossil fuel burning. Called Hydro carbon. Notice. HYDRO. Which is water of course.
All fuels concert back to water when burnt. Water is the bulk of fuels. And. It must go somewhere. It does not disappear. It goes into the atmosphere as water vapour. The higher the temperature. The more the air can hold.
I the volume of water vapour in air. Is now about 3% higher than 60 years ago.. The main reason for our increase in rain in winter months in my opinion. Water is very heavy in large amounts. And can cause great damage to the land. Depending on the terrain. Yet No other person. Has commented. About this reason for flood damage.
Hydro carbon is mostly water..
Carbon isn’t the only problem. Air pollution is a major problem
ALL GAS FUELS ARE LOW IN CARBON AND WATER
SO THEY SHOULD BE USED AS THE DOMINANTE FUELS FOR ALL TRANSPORT VEHICLES.
