@altnoaa.bsky.social posts that Venus is 2.8 times hotter than Mercury despite being farther from the sun because its CO2 atmosphere traps heat, drawing a direct parallel to adding CO2 to Earth's atmosphere.

Bluesky post ties Venus-Mercury heat gap to CO2 and climate change
Live Science

“Venus is 2.8 times hotter than Mercury, despite Mercury being closer to the Sun. Why? Venus' atmosphere is primarily CO2, which traps heat. So what happens when we add CO2 to our atmosphere? It traps heat. This shouldn't be that difficult to understand.”
