   **You STILL fail to understand the reality. CO2 and methane are the big   
   problems. Water vapour is not something we can control (directly). In   
   some areas of the planet (deserts, Arctic and Antarctic regions) CO2 and   
   methane are vastly more influential than water vapour.   
      
   We need to address the problem of human release of GHGs.
