>>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 I’ve 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.
