You clearly have little intuitive understanding of the inverse-square law.
Venus is closer to Earth in terms of orbit and mass than Mars. People once thought that because Venus was so similar to Earth, that the search for extraterrestrial life should begin there, not Mars.
Anyway, glad Gore is no longer on Apple board.
You clearly have little understanding that standing closer to an uncontrolled nuclear furnace is going to make you hotter. Simply claiming it’s the CO2 levels is intellectual dishonesty. As I’m sure you know, the CO2 levels have been higher here on earth, and we did not turn in to Venus.
While it’s true people once thought life could exist on Venus, they also thought it could exist on Mars, and were wrong on both accounts. They also thought the planets and sun revolved around the earth. Scientists don’t know what they don’t know.
At least we’re in agreement with Gore. 😁
