• Grok explains post.

• The post critiques Al Gore's analogy—equating daily greenhouse gas heat trapping to 600,000 Hiroshima bombs—by estimating it as 0.06% of Earth's total solar energy input, using rough calculations of planetary surface area, annual seconds, air heat capacity, and bomb yields.

• Corrected for notation errors (e.g., 5.1e14 m² surface area, 3.78e19 J daily bomb energy), the figure matches peer-reviewed data: Earth's 0.9 W/m² radiative imbalance yields ~4e19 J/day, or ~0.27% of daily solar absorption (1.5e22 J).

• The added winter/summer insolation swings (±11 W/m²) emphasize that while absolute extra heat is vast, it's a small but persistent fraction of natural variability, amplifying long-term ocean warming and ice melt per IPCC assessments.

O.9w-m2 is model simulations and ignores spring extra cooling not recovered fully by summer extra warming.
