Yes, and evaporation from 70% of the Earths surface area puts water back into the sky. Such is the magic of the circle of life.

And CO2 being a very heavy element also sinks. A large argument on the sun heating up the earth is that CO2 is a byproduct of global warming not the causation of it. The article puts this science experiment for you to try. Leave a bowl of ginger ale on the counter and in a saucepan, put a pan of ginger ale on slow heat. The warm ginger ale will go flat releasing its CO2 faster than the one on the counter. (The ocean is ginger ale.)

Hypothesis, increased CO2 in the atmosphere released from the ocean is an effect, not a cause of global warming. It happens after the result, not the cause of the result.
