Hello everyone! Complete beginner here. I can use qGIS to access there WMS data (https://gibs.earthdata.nasa.gov/wms/epsg4326/best/wms.cgi), but not every thing loads a map. Most everything shows me a visualization when I double click it, but the datasets I am most interested in, the CO2 data sets, show me nothing. I'm hoping I'm just not clicking a box or something, I don't know, but I hope someone does.
Thank you in advance!

Re: Beginner Help: QGIS + CO2
Hello!
The imagery available via the GIBS API is also available in Worldview (https://worldview.earthdata.nasa.gov) if you want to first visualize the layers there. This makes it slightly easier for you to identify what layers you want to check out in QGIS as Worldview provides more information about each layer including spatial and temporal resolutions, a short description about the layers etc.
With regards to Carbon Dioxide imagery, we have a few layers from the Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO) 2 and 3 - but aren't available up to the current date, so you'd have to change to an appropriate date to view the imagery.
Here is a link to a recent webinar about how to use Worldview: https://www.earthdata.nasa.gov/learn/webinars/expand-your-view-earth-nasa-worldview
Also, here's the GIBS API documentation information: https://nasa-gibs.github.io/gibs-api-docs/; and the Visualization product catalog: https://nasa-gibs.github.io/gibs-api-docs/available-visualizations/#visualization-product-catalog
