And then there’s global dimming.

Global dimming is thought to have been caused by an increase in particulates such as sulfate aerosols in the atmosphere due to human action.

It has interfered with the hydrological cycle by reducing evaporation and may have reduced rainfall in some areas. Global dimming also creates a cooling effect that may have partially counteracted the effect of greenhouse gases on global warming.

Seriously, I have remarked several times that it seems not as bright outside in the summer.

I thought it was just me.

"And then there’s global dimming."

I thought Global Dimming was the result of Common Core.
