Removal of manmade sun-blocking smoke under clean air laws may add a 1 Celsius rise while oceans will warm further under a lag effect, underscoring how near the 2 degrees limit is already.
I thought this was significant too - they are saying removal of particulates are contribute half as much as CO2 - this is the first time Ive seen the second largest cause mentioned and its one we could do something about - more particulates is easy.
Wasn't that in a way a response to the "Global Cooling" scare in the 1970s?
I remember "Global Cooling" and "Nuclear Winter" stories running concurrently with "Global Warming" stories in the early 1990s.

Actually if worse comes to worse we could probably invoke mild nuclear winter - pick some corner of the earth no one really needs and blow enough dust, smoke and soot into the stratosphere to prevent sunlight from reaching the earths surface.I nominate Massachusetts. Kennedy, Kerry, and Frank would all have to leave DC then.
I mean, I don't really need it.

We are really talking about a generational thing - and all the Al Gore hysteria has hurt a more reasonable examination that shows that, very slowly, the surface of the earth is getting warmer, in terms of a the global average.
