The theory he alludes to regarding the cooling prior to 1970 is that sulpher compounds from burning coal reflected more heat than the CO2 trapped so we had net cooling.

This is never brought up by most Branch Algorians because it suggests a solution to global warming. The 70’s weren’t great, but they were better than the apacolypse the warmers are predicting, so why not allow just enough burning of high sulpher coal to counteract the co2? Problem solved!

Aerosols injected into the stratosphere have been suggested; sulfur aerosols in the troposphere can create acid rain problems, as they did in the 70's.
