Recent fluctuations in Arctic ice are likely caused by soot from Chinese coal-fired power plants. Aerosols produce both warming and coolong symptoms in the "global warming evidence." Airborne soot is a problem that can be improved over time through power plant design and should top the agenda of any practical list of solutions.

The Cooling World
Newsweek, April 28, 1975

Climatologists are pessimistic that political leaders will take any positive action to compensate for the climatic change, or even to allay its effects. They concede that some of the more spectacular solutions proposed, such as melting the Arctic ice cap by covering it with black soot or diverting arctic rivers, might create problems far greater than those they solve. But the scientists see few signs that government leaders anywhere are even prepared to take the simple measures of stockpiling food or of introducing the variables of climatic uncertainty into economic projections of future food supplies. The longer the planners delay, the more difficult will they find it to cope with climatic change once the results become grim reality.
