I don't think we should use the term "greenhouse effect" for this article. The earth's atmosphere does not work like a greenhouse at all.
Using a misleading term is a mistake. It opens a Pandora's box of deceit. We should only use accurate terms, ones which do not conjure up any misleading notions.
We should tell the truth plainly, in a way which inspires trust. --Ed Poor Talk 06:45, 2 June 2007 (EDT)
