   Then, let me explain it for you.  Mercury is the closest planet to our   
   Sun, but it has no atmosphere.  Being so close to our star, however, its   
   noon temperatures are quite high at 430°C; however, when the Sun sets on   
   Mercury, its temperatures start to plummet, and at local midnight, some   
   44 Earth days later (and indeed, until dawn), its temperatures have   
   dropped to -180°C.   
      
   Venus, on the other hand, has an atmosphere like our World, Earth, but   
   unlike Earth, Venus has experienced a runaway greenhouse effect, and due   
   to massive amounts of CO2 gas, the noon temperature on Venus is around   
   460-470°C, but since Venus has an atmosphere, its local midnight   
   temperatures, which occur 29 Earth days after the Sun has set on that   
   World, only drop a few degrees due almost entirely to the large presence   
   of carbon dioxide gas into Venus' atmosphere.  This is also the reason   
   why the temperatures at Venus' poles are almost identical to the   
   temperatures at its equator.   
      
   Conclusion:  Increasing amounts of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas,   
   will cause temperatures on our World, Earth, to increase.  This is a   
   scientific fact, no different than The Law of Falling Bodies.  You can   
   deny such if you wish, just as you can claim that the South won the   
   American Civil War.
