Think of the high temperature within a car on a sunny day. The car is
because it has trapped the hot which would otherwise get spreadthroughout
the entire atmosphere by convective mixing. So, it's not hard to explain
why the inside of your car gets hot during the day. It's harder to
explain why the temperature inside doesn't rise to infinity!

Oooo, interesting tack: the temperature inside a greenhouse would rise
infinity if not for conductive and RADIATIVE cooling processes. SO, fora
real greenhouse, the "greenhouse effect" doesn't explain the high
temperature inside, instead it explains the COOLING process which keeps
the temperature from rising towards infinity! Twisted enough for ya?
