GREENBELT, Md. - A new NASA study has found that an important counter-balance to the warming of our planet by greenhouse gases - sunlight blocked by dust, pollution and other aerosol particles - appears to have lost ground.
(Excerpt) Read more at spaceflightnow.com ...
The kicker is, the article states that after the late 70's, the aerosols started to disipate and the Earth started to warm again.
Wow, 8 years after the EPA started to clean up the pollution in the air, Mother Earth returned to it's normal cycle.
Gotta like these NASA guys.... they can tell us whats under the surface on Mars. There is water on the moon....
But? What about earths atmosphere? They fly through it on an ongoing basis...”it would seem its thinning” is highly scientific.
Like anything they say can be trusted now.
Precisely! Since the lid has been blown off climate change they have to go back to the Ozone Lauer BS. Shhesh.
I thought I was the only one that noticed the correlation between patents expiring, the worldwide ban and new refrigerants.
Global ‘sunscreen’ has likely thinned, NASA scientists say.
MORE VIT D!!
If NASA’s James Hansen had anything to do with this “study” I wouldn’t believe a word of it. Hansen should have been fired long ago.
Look at the banning the propellent of Albuteral inhalers and their move to genaric.
By banning them, a ten dollar copay has turned into a 50 dollar one. Most every asthmatic had one.
BAs***ds!
What is a lot more important is how much water vapor obscuration is in the atmosphere, and this gets tricky.
It was long believed that if evaporation was high, the sky would be filled with clouds. But on its own, this is *not* the case. Cloud formation needs at least one other element to happen, and maybe more than one element.
If clouds are low to the Earth, the ground is cooler, because those clouds reflect heat back up into space. But if clouds are high, more heat is trapped on the surface.
If you go out to the desert, with low humidity and no clouds, during the day it is very hot, because nothing blocks the sunlight. But at night the temperature drops very quickly, because likewise, nothing is trapping the heat to the ground.
The extreme of this is the surface of the Moon, with no atmosphere at all. When it is light, everything that the light touches gets very hot. When it is dark, everything quickly gets very cold.
Only after knowing all this, can we look at aerosol particles in the atmosphere. Do they reflect heat back into space? Do they trap heat to the ground? And does their absence cause higher highs and lower lows?
But aerosol particles are just one factor. You have to add them to other factors, like humidity and cloud cover. And are the clouds high or low.
So it is not as easy as they are letting on.
Anti-AGW nuclear SARCASM TORPEDO . FIRE!!
Let's nuke Tehran and Beijing.
...oh, and Copenhagen.
Presto -- not enough soot for nuclear winter, it'll just be nuclear autumn.
Except those two cities. It'll be nuclear SUMMER.
For a few brief, bright, moments.
Cheers!
I was *close*.
Do I have to spell it out for you??
"Close only counts in horseshoes and..."
Cheers!

Including my wife and me
Agreed, most of what is reported about deep space is total nonsense, they can’t even measure out atmosphere correctly, I crack up at most claims coming about deep space and most people drink it right in like it’s truth ...
The intention was, of course, to murder you asthmatics in your beds.
