I didn't dig deeper, mostly because I believe it's either fake news, or well established news.
If I had to guess, my assumption is the fact that it takes an increasing amount of energy to maintain an increased temperature, not that it has anything to do with a particular property of CO2 concentration. That alone accounts for a non-linear effect.
