1) given a planetary albedo of 30% and using a 1 atmospheric layer energy balance model for the earth, calculate what fraction of out-going long-wave radiation emitted by the earth is absorbed by the atmospheric layer in order to have the observed earth temperature of 288k. (ignore convective and latent heat fluxes and assume that all non-reflected solar radiation is absorbed by the earth). la) calculate the total rate of longwave radiation emitted by the atmospheric layer of the earth (using the above model and assume it's 5 km above the earth's surface) and compare that to the total global production of electricity.
