Looking at that chart and then remembering that in 1970 there was a full-court press on to rid the air of pollutants that contyinues with great success to this very time.

Also if one looks at the change up to 1940 when the flurry of activity spurred by WWII put the great industrial engine into overdrive and spewed out aersol pollutants night and day for years afterward we notice that the temps dropped up to about 1980 when the effects of pollution control also became apparent on the atmosphere.

Perhaps there is a greater influence on the cooling/warming cycles we see caused by our attempts to control one bad thing and creating another “bad thing.”

Would be interesting to see how much this plays in the end game.

London, 1952 killer smog event:

palmer was the one talking about a bet. If I was really to put money on it, there'd have to be more conditions. A major volcanic eruption would have the potential to change things for a few years.
