Aerosols can be tiny droplets of liquid suspended in the air or they can be tiny solid particles (such as tiny pieces of ash in smoke) suspended in the air. I think they are saying that the methane and either type liquid and/or solid aerosols hook up and cause whatever they say is happening. They aren’t talking about the propellant freon in this case.
Yeah I about turn green every time I see that word used in advertising. Butt-kissers to the eco-freaks and the brainwashed little kids. “But mommy, we NEED to be green! Don’t buy that product, buy THIS one. If you don’t, you HATE the earth!”

I don’t like to brag, but my methane aerosol is impressively potent.

"They arent talking about the propellant freon in this case. "
Oh, I realize that...I was trying (awkwardly) to make the point about freon being regulated, mainly from the lobbying efforts of the guy who invented the replacement for freon. If you can get the government to put heavy regulations on the competitions' products (and not yours), you have a free run in the markets.
This will be another "by-product" in the environmentalists religion...using the "green movement" to stifle competition.
Now, I don't have a clue why I thought of that in the middle of a discussion on "aerosols", but I think it was the fact that they were bringing up an old scare factor again.
Please donate to the altzheimer's association....I forgot the address. ;^)
