CO2 provides about 80% of the forcing which sustains the greenhouse effect
(DOI: 10.1126/science.1190653). Water vapour concentration is a feedback
per the Clausius-Clapeyron relationship. The global warming caused by our
120ppm increase in atmospheric CO2 is roughly the same as the total
anthropogenic warming, i.e. about 1°C.
